I have sold so any seats in the touring section,I'm sure there are some happy riders. I have a Corbin dual touring and it;s truly a all day riding pleasure. May not be for every one but it sure works for my self and the wife. Usually I would like one and she would hate it. This is the first that works for both of us. You do need to get the back rest for long touring.

I have 2 seats for my current bike (2015 RG) and had many different ones for my old bike. Also have an Airhawk pad (it helps - but not good enough)

I have an Ultra seat and a stock seat for the 2015, the stock seat hurts my sitbones and tailbone, and the ultra seat hurts my tailbone.

I have had my seats that didn't work for me that I bought for my old 06. They Include

Corbin Dual tour (worst of the bunch - Hard a a rock, and the pain was unbearable)
HD Zeppelin Seat - great seat, but sat me too high + it's ugly
The stock seat - Same issues with the tailbone
A Street Glide Seat from an 07 - Same Issues with both sit and tail bone
Hammock Seat (97-07 style) - this seat was OK, but it moved me back quite a bit. and had to reach for the bars - so riding position wasn't comfortable.

The one I ran for years was a road glide seat off of an 02- which was the best that I tried.

Given the 02 seat wont fit on my 15, I'm not sure what will do the job for me on the Rushmore.

I have very little meat on my back side, so I need something cushy for my sitbones, and I'm thinking a seat curved in the back may help with the tailbone issues

I run a Mustang riders backrest, and ride solo 99% of the time.

Thinking a mustang super tour or a sundowner deep bucket, but am also looking for options to look at. - Suggestions?
People say really good things about customizing their sets with Mean City Cycles. You send them your seat and your details (size, inseam, and weight, etc.) and they customize your seat for the best fit. They put in the memory foam/gel, they can narrow the front, and make all kinds of mods and then they send it back to you all through the mail. http://www.meancitycycles.com/

Russell Day Long. It ain't cheap, but it'll be the best and most comfortable seat you've ever had.
