I have to agree with Colin. Corbin's are definitely firm. Mustangs are squishy soft. C&C's seem to fall in the middle. I don't run their gel option and see no need for it plenty of folks do. The problem with seats is that every one's rear end is different or so I hear.

What I notice is a lot of folks buy a seat & ride for a few hundred miles and think "this seat sucks" but if they gave the seat a chance to break in they may think differently??

after a few thousand miles I find the C&C seat a lot more comfortable as I guess it forms to your shape & size.

+1 on the C & C seats. I had a Harley Brawler seat on my Fatty...total piece of crap. Looked good, but not comfortable over an hour. Now I have a solo C & C made to order. Use the stock seat with passenger pillion sometimes, but hardly every go 2 up. Wife rides her own and not too keen on me picking up other ladies without supervision...

i have the hd brawler too and for buzzing around town it's great for short runs. But after riding steady for a couple of hours it's a butt buster.
