Default solo seat help

Hey all, been searching and looking for a solo seat for my 07 Streetglide. I can't decide which one to go with, I know the benefits of all the various brands. What I'm looking for is pics of your solo seats.
Thanks

I am also looking to fit a harley solo on my RK custom - xept the one in the catalogue says it fits all RKs except for the RK custom. I have also seen solo seats on ebay that say they fit all rks after a certain year, except for the FLHRS (custom)...

Anyone have a solo on their custom and can share a pic and/or the p/n of the seat? Thanks.

Here's the Mustang solo. Very comfortable, but I wonder if it wouldn't look a little too nostalgic for the clean lines of the Street Glide. Seems like the Corbin would flow a little better on the more contemporary SG.

I've always liked leather. I almost bought a non leather solo seat. With local temps around 90-100 I am gladto have leather.

I really like the look of the C&C, but I would be worried about comfort on a road trip, and the other problem is that the passenger pillion can't be used. The Corbin looks great, just too much money right now. Just don't know what too do. Leaning towards the Mustang, but I hear it puts you higher, and I'm short, if anything I want to go lower and forwards.

If you are short the mustang will be a little of a problem. I am 5'7" and it put me on my toes. I ended up swapping out to the corbin. The guys at Axiom Cycles were very understanding http://www.axiomcycles.com. The did the exchange without a re-stocking charge. There prices were also the best that I could find on the net.

I put the HD Sundowner solo on my 07 SG. It moved me to far forward so I sent it to Allen at Mean City Cycles and he is going to move me as far back as he can and install the foam he uses. Can't wait to get it back. Bought the seat from Chicago HD for $208 shipped to my door.
