Default Street Glide seat ???

I have a 2010 SG and want a more comfortable seat than the stock one, but dont want a big bulky seat. Oh....and I want it for 2up. I like the looks of the Mustang Wide Tripper.....but will it be alot more comfy than stock? Or throw out your suggestions.

Thanks!

I have a Mustang on my 07 SG. I ride two up quite a bit. In my experience there is not very many comfy "not bulky" seats. Some things to consider is how much you and your passenger weigh and how long you plan to ride between stops. I did not care for the stock seat and my wife felt like she was falling off the back. Good luck!

What he said. It's very comfy, it's very nice for the passenger, it still looks sleak and sporty and you can pick one up for around $165 like new. The one I bought had 100 miles on it.

Now if you want an after market seat you'll be spending some serious cash ($600)

Hey 07FLHT - did you misread the original post?? I think he was saying "Give me your opinions", not that he was going to throw out or disregard our opinions.

if you notice how the stitching of the roadglide seat lines up with the tank console on texas fat boy's bike, then that's got class indeed. i replaced the seat on my 08 streetglide with a roadglide seat about a year and a half ago, and it's a huge improvement over the stock streetglide seat. the new roadglides though, use a streetglide seat. an 08 or 09 roadglide seat would work on your bike i'd think. i bought a sundowner and had issues with the foam compressing down to where it was just seat pan after a couple of hours, and besides it looked dorky as hell.
