I use a Corbin Gunfighter for 2 up and a Corbin Hollywood solo as well. Love 'em both, very comfy and well made, though a bit expensive.

Word or warning about Corbin..
There is no returns whatsoever. If you dont like the seat or it doesnt fit right the only thing youc an do is send it back and let them adjust it.
With that said.. They will do anything you want to the seat and not charge extra..

I have a danny grey bad lander type seat that I love but the wife can't ride on it much over a couple miles so
I went to a mustang pillow top much better for her and I can ride on it.
butt ugly seat as it is big but any seat that is comfy for the wife is going to be ugly in my humble opinion..
they are all big and take away from the look of the bike

Exactly, which is why I have a Mustang Wide seat on its way, to go along with my C&C Solo and C&C Sport Tour seats that I use for local riding.

I think that is true, but they will do anything to make it right short of returning the money. That being said, I like the leather panels, and all the options, and the quick attach, detach.

I use the King/Queen Retro. Looks good and is comfortable. My wife likes it too. She absolutely hated the stock seat.

Anyone have the Solo seat from Mammoth Choppers called the "sloth" ? I was looking at getting the Corbin Hollywood solo but this Sloth seat is $175.00 cheaper.
