Default Fatboy Seat Recommendations

Looking for the extra comfort for rider & passenger.
Would like a backrest pad that will bolt right on to my sissy bar as is....

Any thoughts?

My suggestion is the mustang seat. I have one - made all the differemce in the world. My wife loves it as well.
I got the touring seat. Install was way easy and
now I can ride 500+ miles with little to no back fatigue or pain. The way it ever so slightly changes the riding position is amazing.

My opinion...

John

I have the Mustang as pictured above. The other member is right, the seat and back rest made all the difference. My *** hurt for days on my original seat, but not with the Mustang. I wish now maybe I had gone with the plain seat instead of the studded one, oh well.

Let me add that my seat is solo only, and has the padded metal back brace that slides in the rear of the Mustang seat. That brace really supports your back.

I also think the Mustang is great,It is superior to stock, I have the Mustang Vintage drivers seat with backrest and matching passenger pillion for sale if intersted, its like brand new ,both cost $678.00 will sale for $425.00 plus shipping, once I changed over to the 250 rear tire and fender I could no longer use it , boy did I look into ways to make it work though as it is far more comfortable than the seat I have now , if interested you can email me at nperry34@msn.com

Another plug for the Mustang. Got one with the backrest for me. To date all passengers have mentioned how comfortable they are also.
