Default Seat like a Badlander, but better?

I have a Badlander seat on my 2005 Fatty. I love the style of the seat and what it does to the lines of the bike, and I can sit on it all day. Problem is that after 2 hours or so of riding, my girlfriend finds it pretty painful.

Does anyone have a recommendation for anon-HD seat that resembles the Badlander but that's more comfortable for the passenger -- either because it's built better, padded better, whatever. I'm happy to pay more $$$ for something really good.

Thanks,

RobNYC

check a sponser on site, mean city cycles. I just sent them my seat. have heard good stuff about their work and prices. they will take your badland and widern passenger area and also alter your rider position. Mine is getting lowered and further back.

I bought a CORBIN. Their seats look god and are awsomely comfortable. I thought about sending my seat off to a sponser but bought the CORBIN instead. It is wicked comfortable...

Thanks for the suggestions. The guys who rebuild stock seats said they don't do Badlander seats because there's not enough to work with -- they also said the Badlander has the worst passenger seat they've ever seen.

Am checking out Corbins and Mustangs ....

I have the Profiler Gel by Saddleman, pretty much the same shape as the Badlander. Girlfriend has no complaints.
