Very few people do not love the Harley Air Zeppelin on their tour bikes. We sure love ours.

Mustang came out with their solo and passenger pillon last week. The rider solo is new for '08, so I have not tested it yet, but the '07 model did great on my Road King. The 13.5 inch passenger pillon was very comfortable for my wife for all-day rides and it's the same for '08.

My vote would be for the Corbin Dual Toring seat with a drivers bacrest for your back support. You can even get it in a heated version if you need it. Firm but that's what you need for long hauls.

My wife hated the Corbin.....said it was waaaay too hard for her. It was actually one of my favorites I tried, just right for me.

We tried the Mustang Regal. It was not too hard, but not too soft either. It seems to raise me up about one inch though....so that took a little while to get use to. This was about the only seat that the wife liked.....anyways, the good seat right out of the box. Well built.

I did have stock seat redone several years ago.....it was much more comfortable afterwards. However, the stock seat is still built cheap though.....the top vinyal is cheap looking, the seat is actually stapled to the base plate. It was better, but I wasn't completely satisfied with it.

Have had both Mustang and Corbin in the past, either one worked well for me. Used the Corbin most of the time, and recently sold the Mustang . Pricey, but works for me ............[sm=smiley20.gif]

Have you checked out Saddleman seats? I have a heated saddleman seat and find it to be very comfortable. The back rest also work well and is easy to remove and lock up.

We tried the Saddleman seat......very big and comfortable. Probably about the most comfortable touring seat we ever tried. However, there was one problem..... When the bike was parked out in the hot sun all day....it was unbearable to sit on. I never had a seat that got that hot before...I mean it was HOT!!!!! I was told it was the gel that gets soooo hot. Anyways, that was my experience.
