Is it comfortable for ~150 miles without stops?

SASH302,
The tank is from Custom Chrome.
TARTARUS,
The seat is firm but very comfortable. Haven't had the chance for a long ride yet. I've done about 75 miles/1 hour without stopping and have no complaints. Nice back support as well.

Thanks Rmyers, I couldn't stand the badlander after about 30 miles it was uncomfortably and after 100+ I could barely stand it it made 700+ riding days hard. Then I got the sundowner, its ugly as hell but i can go 140+ and barely feel it. now I am just looking for something slightly lower profile and still comfy. Your seat looks like it might do the job. Any others with feedback on it?

If back support is something you need then you might want to look at the Mustang squareback. Low profile but still comfy for long rides. The Daytripper is another. Mustang will send a seat out for you to try for a couple of weeks. If you don't like it then just send it back for a refund. You would just be out the shipping costs.
Yeah I was thinking about doing this also do you know if they cover it with the same cover or if they will recover(my cat decided to use it as a scratching post when i took it off)

Yes, they do new covers and I wanted them to recover it with leather but they were having a problem. I was in a hurry to get my seat back so I just had them put the original back on. That was over a year ago so I would hope they got their problem fixed by now. Give them a call, they are good guys and will help you out.

I'm selling a HD Sidekick seat if anyone is interested. Similar to the Badlander but a little more comfortable.
