Default Mustang Solo Seat Question

Just curious if Mustang seats require a "break-in" period based on your experiences? I just replaced the Sundowner Solo with the Mustang Solo w/rider backrest and the first thing I noticed was additional pressure on the back of the legs at the edge of the seat. After riding for a while the whole back of my legs start to hurt. The Sundowner is more rounded as it curls downward on the sides where the Mustang is more squared off. I'm hoping that after a few miles this will start to soften up. I have readjusted my highway pegs to see if that will help. I hate to think I just spent that money on a seat that won't work for me.

Any ideas, input, suggestions?


Thanks,
Brian

It will somewhat, I know my whole seat has settled since I got it just over a year ago. But that pressure on the back of the legs is still there, albeit not as much as before; it is just the way the seat is made. Hopefully it will settle enough to remove most of the pressure for you.

I shipped mine back after the first ride. I did not like the way the Mustang locked me into a position. Plus I was concerned about the vinyl material. I got an Air Zeppelin and have been a happy boy!
