Default Stock seat on Heritage

My 07 Heritage seat is torture after about 50 miles. My wife complained about comfort so I got passenger foot boards and the touring pillion for her. She's happy. I'm not. I need a seat that will allow me to keep the Harley pillion, and give me some comfort. I know everybody likes mustangs seats, but just my personal opinion, I don't like the way they look. They also look like they would put you forward too much. Any ideas? Or do I have to dump the pillion and start over again? Thanks for any advice ahead of time.

Mate of mine has a Mustang and for me you sit ON the seat.I prefer the Corbin which sits you IN the seat.Got the classic solo with rider backrest and pillion.The pillion seat comes in 2 widths as well.
I know people here love their Mustangs but it doesnt suit me.The Corbin does,and its leather.
Its an individual thing and what suits one person doesnt suit the next.

Many on this forum recommend sending your stock seat to be refitted by:

http://www.americanasoftseats.com/

They will restuff your stock seat so it looks the same but the inards are new.I am going to do this during the winter. Search this forum for american soft seats.

ciao
