Default The age old question........

Which seat to use? The seat on my brand new SG is flat compaired to the Mustang I've had on my last 2 bikes. Told the dealer I wanted a Sundowner just to make sure I got 15% off. I'm familiar with MCC customizatioins and obviously Mustange and hate the look of the front of the Sundowner. Any thoughts from guys who have tried multiple seat options. This is my first and last HD (according to the wife).

The stock seat is totally comfortable to me. But I've had great luck with the Mustang line on previous rides. The true answer can only come from your own azz! Good Luck!

I switched out my Ultra to the sundowner and it made a world of difference added the RJ originals for some heat protecting and I think it makes the front of the seat look better and blend into the bike.
