Default solo seat for breakout

Is there anything else available out as of yet for a solo seat option other than the reduced reach from HD ?

The free one already on your bike? Take the rear pad off.

I really hope Mustang makes one soon for the BO... I found that taking the pillion off is actually less comfortable, the seat doesn't give enough support without it and my butt slides back too much.

That is why I was asking .... I agree Killer Squirrel ... There is no lower ***/back support when the passenger seat is off and you tend to slide back ... I was hoping for a deeper higher back version that you see on alot of older softails ....

I called Mustang when I got my breakout in may, they said they would not be making a seat for it. I had mustang seats on my Dyna and liked them a lot. Maybe if enough of us keep asking for them they might rethink about making one. I went with custom seat and pillion on mine but they are only good for about 70 miles.

I'm thinking the stock front portion of the fatboy seat may work, and it appears to have more dip in it. Just need to find someone local that will let me try one on my bike.

Also, Danny Gray is supposed to be working on a Breakout seat. Bitchin' Seats is also.
