Best SGS seat for looks & comfort?
#21
My $0.02.. I bought the CVO set up and rode on it all last season. It looks great and it was good for our ride up and back to Cabot Trail Nova Scotia, 6-days and over 1800 miles. No complaints but I had a chance to sell it and I did. After searching this forum for nights on end and cruising Google images I was discouraged to see that HD Forum folks all zero in on the followingl Corbin, Mustang, Hammocks, Saddlemen, etc... No mention of Ultimate Seats. I had an Ultimate on my VTX before getting my SGS. So... yeah... I just received my Ultimate Mid-rider Solo with Backrest and was able to put it on and go for a ride before the snow started. I just wanted to say that sometimes you need to step out of the box and search for seats that are not common on this forum. This seat is extremely comfortable and looks great. I wish there were more images on line and I can't wait till spring to go for a distance ride. Here is a picture. Sorry it is not a great picture outdoors but check it out.

So I should get a seat that fits me and not someone else. Ok. The BMS works great for you, who is to say it will work for me? If your advice is to get something that fits me and not someone else’s then you probably shouldn’t be recommending a seat that fits you to someone else. Just my take on that. Not trying to offend.

Ok, then please tell me why over 65% of Riders that have done the Iron Butt ride - 11,000. miles in 11 Day's use BMS seat's { Fact } And if you did your research you would know . I understand i Don't want to Offend ! LOL
But those are the fact's
But those are the fact's

MOST good looking seats aren't very comfortable. I have a Russell daylong I use for 2,000 mile and up weeks. It's hideously ugly but super comfy. My cvo solo is on for everything else. It's good for back to back 8 hour days

I hate to echo myself, but, your best option, for best looking and best feeling, is your STOCK seat, with a MeanCityCycles rework. My suggestion, would be the Iron Butt with a narrowed thigh area.
