Mustang.

Purchase from www.mandmcycles.com for a decent price. I have some serious joint and lower back issues. I can ride all day long due to the seat. Take a brake every 90 miles or so........

seen on your signature that you have an '07 UC. it comes stock with an upgraded seat, a Comfort Stitch Seat. It is not a bad seat, much better than the stock ones that comes on the rest of the EG line. You might look at HD Sundowners, they give a bit more back support and are also a great seat. Many have them (I have one on my WG). it is pretty good too. Besides Corbin and a host of others, HD does make the Road Zeppelin that is air adjustable. got one just before my last trip and it was great for both me and the passenger. It does raise you up a tad, so if you are vertically challenged, might be better looking at something else.

Thinking about getting a Mustang seat- did you get the smooth touring seat or the Regal?

Try this link:

Forget the Mustank & Corbin seats. Ultimate makes a good seat.

If you have the time to wait there are custom builds like Russell Day Long, or modify your stock seat http://www.meancitycycles.com/

I now have a Road Zeppelin thanks to this forum and love it. The Road Zepp is taller so if heighth is an issue do a search on this forum to see what other riders have to say about them.

I am very happy with my Corbin Dual Tour w/ backrest - not as hard as people make them out to be - firm and gives good support

Bought the smooth. Glad I did. The pillow look tends to trap dirt etc in the buttons
