Default got a sore butt!

I was looking for a little advice on replacing a 2008 stock streetglide seat. I really want to keep the low profile look while adding a little more comfort. I have been looking at either C&C or Danny Grey seats so I can do a little customization with the color(grey seat on vivid black bike). Any advice would be much appreciated.
thanks,
scramin steve

Let Mean City Cycles re-work it. They are a site sponsor and the one of the best at what they do!

I'm please with my Danny Gray Big Seat...very comfortable, and I got it slightly used off a forum member for a VERY good price. I've had Mustang, LePera, Corbin, and a few others in the past and the Danny Gray is of equal quality and I feel better comfort for me. Your mileage may vary and you can't really go wrong with any of those.

If you want comfort, quality and many color/design options then you need to look at a Corbin. The best seat $$$$ money can buy IMHO !!!

+1 on the Sundowner.

My girlfriend was giving me a lot of static about her *** hurting after about two hours in the stock Street Glide seat. I went out and bought a new HD FLHX Sundowner seat for her....and now she is quiet as a church mouse (but she now wants her new back rest installed ASAP). She says the difference is day and night from the OEM stock SG seat to the SG Sundowner. I also found that the Sundowner seat is very comfortable....it does raise me up about 1/2" and move me forward about 1", but the comfort is there for sure. I used to be able to go for about 4 hours until my a$$ started hurting.....and my Gf could go about two....now with the new Sundowner, we have spent over 6 hours in one day riding, and still no fatigue at all!
