Can someone tell me some other companies that make good seats? I know about CC Seats and Corbin. Are there any other companies that make confortable seats?

If the seat you have now is giving you problems then get in touch with Mean City Cycles and talk to them about their seat mods.........great stuff.

It's not that it's giving me problems. I want to get a solo seat for when my wife is not riding with me and I want to get a better seat for when she does ride.

I've been looking at bar enterprises seats, www.harleyseats.com. They look like good seats, but I don't know if I care much for fiberglass seat pans.

Did 4500 miles in 6 days. My Mustang seat on my RK was perfect! My wife also said she notices a big difference. My seat lowered me and moved me back. I strongly recommend A Mustang seat.

Google is your friend. There are lots of options. Depending on what you're riding, you may find there are so many choices you have trouble deciding which you like best. I have a Sportster, and put an H-D Sundowner on it...the wife likes it a lot, and so do I. I did a 700 mile ride over 24 hours last weekend, and it was very comfortable. Compared to a lot of aftermarket seats, the price is actually pretty good, too.

I bought a Corbin Seat for my old Fatbob and was very happy with it. But that being said, after I got my Electraglide I figured I'd give Mean City Cycles a try. I had the seat done about a year ago and for the the price it was definately the way to go. Great work for a fraction of the price.

I ride a Street Glide and I'm tall with long legs. So I am looking for a seat to push me back and not lower me. I had the bike raised and don't want to get lowered by the seat. I appreciate all of the suggestions and comments.
