And because the passenger pillion won't work with the SS seat, I sent my stock seat to Mean City Cycles. They did a memory foam mod which is just as comfortable as the Sick Saddles seat, and works with the pillion. Cost around 140 w shipping.
I'm in the bike, has a tiny bit of a back rest for non-slide comfort. Gel insert, leather. I consider it a Half Day seat, then you need a rest. Then ride the rest of the day.
I've been through...
1: stock fxdc seat
2: Lepera bare bones
3: Mustang Vintage Solo
4: Stock Street bob seat

The Danny Gray Weekday Solo is my favorite.
Looks awesome. Some of the solo seats are way too bulky looking. This looks like a good compromise between comfort and style. This just make my list. For the OP, check out the corbin Hollywood. I have that one short listed for a solo seat if you are looking for style and comfort. Avoid the bare bones unless you just want style.

Thanks,
I completely agree with regard to the comfort/style compromise. I went through a bunch of seats and came to the exact same conclusion.
Honestly.... just ride the stock seat for a while and break it in. See how you like it, then maybe consider other seats. Seats are subjective due to many different body types.
But I found the stock seat to be like sitting on a sheet of plywood for the first few hundred miles, but now I really like it now that it has softened up some. But now that I'm much more confident in riding the bike and made a few more improvements I'm looking to get a seat the can keep my skinny *** in it a little better.
Hey ZeroFiveFour, that bike looks sharp bro, I'm liking the chrome & silver
I agree, seats are subjective. I've said it before, I use to lay out big miles on a bicycle seat, so every seat I've had has been fine for me, its all about the right look I'm going for, and maybe a lil passenger comfort. But I do ride mostly solo.
