Question for Deuce riders????
I ride a 2000 Deuce and I have the stock seat on it thats kills my a$$ after 50 miles or so. I'm looking for a seat that will let me move around or or put me a few inches back, maybe a bit flatter with some more (softer) padding. I had a Corbin on it, a gunfighter I think, that put me too low and was too hard for my taste, almost like sitting in a bucket. Still got that one. Any suggestions from you fellow Deuce riders out there would be great! Thanks a million guys!

Why don't you give Mean City Cycles a call. They can rework the seat you have so it feels better and fits you properly for a lot less money than a new one will cost you.

You're on your own when it comes to seats. Lots out there. Call the manufacturers to see if they carry a seat that will set you back a few inches, as far as comfort, that is up to you to decide. I changed to the Corbin Gunfighter seat early on and I wouldn't go anywhere without it.

I had the similar seat...talk about a azz buster, no more than 30 to 45 mins riding and I was done, very difficult to even stand up after a ride...looks go but chit for comfort.

I have an HD bucket seat on my 07 Deuce and It's been very comfortable. Although I haven't owned the bike for very long, I've had a couple 100+ mile runs with it and it's probably been one of the most comfortable seats I've ridden. I'm an old guy so, comfort is important to these old bones.

I tried the Gunfighter...like getting off a pine board onto an oak board. The Badlander is not quite as comfortable as a tampon with a garbage bag over it.
Both my wife and I have LePera seats...mine on my Deuce is a Sorrento two up now. Its been on there for 10-12K miles.and it is clearly the best seat I have used on a motorcycle. Gave up a little in sleek looks at the curb, at speed nobody can get a good look and I can't see it at all. A little tricky using luggage rack....makes it more difficult to put on/take off. Stock sissy bar works fine. Hers is a Daytona or something and it is good looking and more comfortable than stock 1200C seat.
