I recently posted my Mean City seat for sale but got no takers. Surprised no one was interested. These seats are much more comfortable than stock. Guess I'll try ebay?
Yep. stock seats suck. I've had four seats (stock, tallboy, Corbin, and Mustang). Basically, gave up. But, use the Corbin for around town. Mustang on long trips. I had a gel insert put in my stock seat - was only a bit better. Comes down to the stock seats use crappy foam that breaks down quickly,
Clayguy, how long were you seatless while they did the modification?
I sent my seat in about 4 days early because I was leaving town for a few days. MCC shipped my seat on a Friday and I got it back following Wed....NC to Denver. I'd allow a couple of weeks for the whole process. Be sure and book in advance by going to their website. They seem to be quite busy, so sending it to them w/o an appointment will probably add significantly to the length of time getting it back to you. May consider holding off until winter when they may be a bit slower and riding opportunities are less.
Which of MCC's modification options did you have done to the seat?? I would like to know as I'm thinking about this type of mod also. Tks.
I did the Memory Foam Modification for both driver and passenger. Go to their website and they explain the various options in addition to this option. In the final analysis, I feel I got more than my money's worth. Comfort on long rides is worth quite a bit.
I'm waiting until the end of riding season to get in touch with MCC about doing mine over the winter, that way I don't have to worry about loosing any riding time. The longest ride I've done so far on my 08 Ultra was about 300 miles and it was hard to get off the bike at the end because of being sore. Looking forward to some long vacations next summer and want a seat that won't make it miserable....I've tried Mustang and don't like them, and heard too many bad stories about poor customer service from Corbin, so MCC seems like the best alternative.
I don't think you regret it, besides, you don't have to take out a home loan to pay for comfort!
