Default Need a new seat, Suggestions?

Hey yall' I have a 05 Night Train looking to get a new seat. Right now i have a Mustang Run around, it sits super low which i like but boy is it uncomfortable after 25 plus miles. and suggestions for something more comfortable but still sits low and looks good. I want another solo seat, and I dont do many long trips often.

Good luck!
I posted a similar seat question a few days ago. Only one hit. I'd help if I could, but I'm trying to figure it out too. Hard to find pics of them on the bike.

Yeah I kinda figured that. I just don't want to go blindly and end up spending 300 or so dollars on a seat I don't like ha

Posted the same on Superdog's other thread just this morning..

You could get yours reworked in the materials, stitching and filling of your choice perhaps, if you have a decent upholsterer near you? As already touched upon...Buying a seat off the shelf can be a gamble as you don't really know what you're getting until you put your butt on it and go for a longer ride. I bought a base and got a local company to build the seat with the density of foam and gel insert of my choice, that way it could be easily tweaked for my fat **** should the need have arisen.
