Stock seat hard as a rock...
Yeah, I rode the wife sporty for about 20 minutes or so and realized how hard that stock seat it. Her bike came with a Corbin on it and the stocker in a box, but she sold the corbin because she didn't like it. I would ahve done the opposite.

RE: Stock seat hard as a rock...
My stocker blows, I like the look but long rides kill my @ss after about 100 miles. I wanted to get a bigger tank so I can put more miles on without filling up but what the hell, I can rest my butt more often with the 3.3[sm=yeahsmile.gif][sm=yeahsmile.gif]

RE: Stock seat hard as a rock...
since the stock seats are worthless anyway, you may want to take a look at www.meancitycycles.com . they can modify your existing stock seat for as little as $40.00.my brother sent them his honda seat and he spent less than $50.00. the site has a detailed photo layout. you can do it yourself too. i and several friends all ordered samples of tempurpedic material online. of course, you get alot of junk mail later. anyway, i just pulled the staples out on each side starting at the back of the seat. i only went halfway to the front. i pulled back the cover andlaid 4 of the blocks where my butt hit and drew a line around them. i used the wife's electric knife tocut out about 1/2 inch less depth than the height of the block. i used some 3m glue from autozone and set them in the hole.pull the cover back on and restaple with the handy dandy christmas lite stapler. took about an hour and spent $8.00. now i go back and forth between the stock and mustang solo. i know this ran long, but i have done this for a few buddies and theyare alot happier with their seats now. might save someone some $$$$
