I have the Mustang Wide Solo with Back Brace on my Fatboy. Made all the difference, my rear end does not hurt now and the support from the back brace makes you feel like you can rider forever. Good luck with your selection.

I also have the large Mustang touring seat with passenger pillion and rider backrest. A lot better than the stock seat, although I don't think any of them are perfect. The backrest is a must for me! But the best thing, along with the Mustang, was a pair of Kuryakan dually offset highway pegs that allow me to stretch out all the way. This method of riding (for me, at 6"1", 260) takes about 60% of the weight off your tailbone. With the Mustang, backrest and pegs, I could ride all day if I didn't have to stop 'to make and or add water."

RE: best seat for softail
I have several seats I use. First I bought the Sundowner seat. Loved it except for the long rides I wanted a back rest. Next I got the Harley softail seat with the back rest. The fit was about the same and the back rest is great. Just for kicks and to change the looks a bit I borrowed my brother's solo seat off his Heritage. Still waiting for it to warm up outside to give it a try though.
