Default Road Glide Seat: Is it Comfortable??

Can you Road Gliders give me some feedback on the stock seat (05' or 06')? Is it a comfortable seat to ride on for any extended time or do most swap out the stock seat for aftermarket ones? I'm thinking of putting one on my Street glide. It fits and I like the look but don't want another uncomfortable H-D stock seat. Thanks......

I have a SG and a buddy just bought a RG. Seat is pretty much the same IMO.......... I like low, lean and a tad bit of reach for the bars. Your dealer should have a setup to let you test out seats. Just a thought before you lay down $300-$400. Good luck.

I have yet to find a HD seat that is comfortable. Even their specialty line. Hard to beat Corbin (once it breaks in) or Mustang. Seats just aren't Harley's cup of tea.
