Default New RGS

Picked this bad boy up over the weekend. Coming off of a '12 Street Glide. Amazing how good this Road Glide rides. And I love the color.

I'm looking for a good, comfortable solo seat with an adjustable backrest that isn't too hideous to look at. I was looking at Corbin's have read a lot of negative stuff about their customer service. I think I've narrowed it down to a Mustang Solo.

NICE!!!

Congratz, Enjoy the ride! This is the first bike I have had that I like the stock seat, fits me well. Sorry have no input on a seat except that I tried a Corbin on my last ride, and it did not work well for me, just way to hard & I had a Mustang on my VTX, and it was great.

Thanks everybody!

The negative reviews of Corbin customer service and people saying they are very hard are keeping me from ordering one. I checked out C&C seats, but they really only have one seat on their site that I like, but they don't give any information on it. I'll just need to call them I guess.

I had a Mustang seat on a bike probably 10-12 years ago, and I liked it. So I'm probably gonna go that route.

I actually put about 35,000 miles on my Street Glide with the stock seat and was always very comfortable. I did finally break down and get a Sundowner just because I figured the ride could get even better. I really like that seat and still have it but don't want to install the mounting hardware for the backrest. I'd rather have a seat with the backrest built into it.
