I liked my stock seat on my 2011, but tried a Sundowner to give the passenger more cush.
Worked out great for both of us.
Test one at the dealer, might work well for you.
BTW I also had the Mean City Mod done to it later on and it made it even better.

I still have a bunch of those seats and use a few of them.<br />If I'm touring, expecting 400mile plus days for multiple days, a Mustang Super Touring is what goes on. Very comfortable, 20" wide and sets you back almost 2", has a bunch of (_I_) coverage. Makes for a lot of places to move around if need be and you don't need to be in the same position ALL THE TIME.<br />Everyday and weekend run is a C&amp;C Wide solo. Needs about 500 mile of breakin but after that, oh wow, great for a big boy butt.<br />You'll see a 2018 CVO seat on Pumpkin occasionally, cause it's purty and has orange stitching ......... and it's pretty darn comfortable too!

I had a Hammock heated on my 15 CVO Roadglide. I thought it was the most comfortable seat ever. Now I have a 15 Ultra Limited and put on a Mustand Heated Summit Super Touring. It is by far the most comfortable seat I’ve ever had on a bike. I just completed a 3500 mile trip and seat discomfort was never an issue. We rode about 450 miles a day average.

you can just read all the available posts and make your own decision without a poll.
who makes the best, what is the best, polls are too vague.
