Default 2011 883 superlow seat

I am looking for a suggestion for a seat for my 883 superlow. I have a mustang vintage on my fatboy lo and I like it. I want a seat that sits me higher up and further back. The present seat make my seating position to cramped and causes numb butt. It is my wife's bike but she is not really riding much so I may take it over as a second bike.

Hi Mike, from the UK. I reckon I will soon be in the same position! My wife put her money down on a sweet new Merlot Superlow on Saturday and I can see I will be 'sorting' it out in time! That seat doesn't look too comfortable to me either and is already on my shortlist, along with slightly longer rear shocks.

One of the ladies on the forum ordered a mustang seat for her bike. She got it a C&J Cycles I think.
