Default seat advice
2014 street glide and seat sucks. I've been to dealer to demo and like the hammock. Are there any solo seats that are as comfortable or any thing aftermarket as comfortable? Not opposed to 2 up or solo. Thanks

Seats are such an individual thing. I'm very happy with my Mustang wide touring seat, if that helps. Have spent many a 12 hour day in the saddle on it.

My wife and I just finished a 3000 mile two up trip on my 2014 Limited. We have a heated hammock seat. Super comfortable even on a 10 hour day.

I bought a Mustang wide super solo for my SGS in Oct. Put 8,200 miles on the SG the next three months. I enjoyed the seat.

Bought a Ultra and I put a Mustang super tour on it. I also enjoy it but it would look like crap on the SG.

I'm a old guy with callouses on his a** so what I like might differ from what you expect. I like a firm seat! I'm 5'10" 235lbs.

I have the Mustang Super Touring on my Street Glide. I also have a Mustang riders backrest. I think it looks fine and it's super comfy for me and the Mrs. In fact it's one of the only mods I've stuck with and haven't changed.

Wish I could say the same about windshields, audio, suspension!

Highly recommend the Mustang solo w detachable backrest. Add a rear seat pad for passenger. Just did a 11,000 mile 22 day trip to Alaska and back. No sore seat.
