Default New Seat
Keep looking for the right seat, hope this is it. Mustang solo. Not really into studs and conchos, but the price was too good to pass up. Let me know what you think. Try to put up better pics this weekend.

I've been debating on getting that very seat. Interested how you like it. I've heard a lot of good things about it.

Thanks for the encouragement, guys. Always nice to get feedback, one way or the other.
I will look into a recover if I can get the color I would want. The short ride home from work was certainly different. I was surprised at the change of posture and position the seat put me in.

Does it sit you more upright than the Badlander did?

Yes, it does. Feels a bit higher, too, but I haven't measured. That could just be a result of different posture.
