Question Who makes the best seats?

I know who I hope is the very best, since I just bought one. But, I’m interested in knowing who you believe to be the best all around seat manufacturer. Comfort is a huge factor, but we can all agree, no-one wants it to be ugly. I have a very limited experience, with anything other than H-D and Mustang. As far as I’m concerned, I absolutely hate Mustang seats. I’ve had nothing but bad experiences with them. The very most comfortable seat I’ve ever sat on, is H-D’s Police model, by a long shot. But, they’re not the best looking, and the passenger gets screwed. Let’s hear your opinions based on experience.

I've only had experience with 2 different seats on my Springer factory and Corbin. The factory seat was a joke but I've put over 100k miles on my Corbin Gunfighter and based on how I ride, my Corbin has been the best for me but to each their own,.

So how come you didn’t pick Corbin in the poll? Is it not showing?

I’ve got one better. Once you vote, list the model and make you chose, and for which bikes. You’re not really helping me, think of it as helping to quash the repetitive questions about seats

Corbin is starting to run away with it, which makes me think that I’ve spent my money wisely for once.

I really like my the Mustang on my wide glide. Nice, comfy, and durable.
