Default 2007 FXST SEAT

Hi All,
Hope everyone is doing well.......I have an 07 FXST. My wife enjoys riding and when we ride we like to go for a few hours at a time. The stock seat, for me gets uncomfortable after about1.5-2 hours. For my wife she is complaining from the start, that it is too hard and not wide enough. Any suggestions on a very comfortable 2-up seat that has a wider passenger pad and looks nice. Any pics of your favorites would be greatly appreciated too as this is my first bike and i am not real familiar with what is out there and avialable!!

Thanks in advance for all your help!

Aaron

Mustang makes a good quality and comfortable seat. You should check out their selection. Corbin seats are nice, but they're hard as a rock. They break in over time and form to the shape of your butt. So it takes a little time, but they normally wind up pretty comfortable. You could also look at the other Harley seats. The Signature Series seat looks pretty nice and comfortable. Those are just a few places to start lookin'.

I had the same problem. I have a 2006 Standard. When I bought the bike , I changed the seat immediately. I put on the stock seat that comes with 2007 Custom --- what a difference!!!! My wife just loves the seat. It's also very quick to changeback to my solo.

I put a Mustang vintage wide on mine,and my wife and I love it, the wife took one look at the stock item and said "no way"
I suffer with lower back problems and the "backrest" created by the higher rear seat gives my back just enough support.
The quality of Mustang is also excellent.
