Default Solo Seat Reccomendation

Can you guys recommend a solo seat for my 2010 Limited which has ample room under it for a power commander, all the cables and crap for the removable tour pack and comfortable enough for the long rides.
I am 6'1" so nothing that pushes me forward will do.

I'm happy with my Mustang Solo.

Mustang seats sit on rubber mounts that touch to the frame. All the weight will be on the frame. This will/should allow wiring and anything else to safely lie under your seat. Also the rear seat that I use when riding two up touches the frame only. Doesn't mess with the paint on the rear fender.

I'm sure some of the better known brands do the same. Other will have to chime in on that. One thing I will say about the Mustang is, I no longer think about my seat when riding now. What does that tell you?

+1 for the Mustang along with back rest. Extremely comfortable on long or short rides.

+2 for the Mustang solo, wish I had got it sooner. Bought it at the end of September. But those last few rides prior to putting it away for the winter were awesome.

C&C is the ONLY choice!

I like the C&C but was told you can't use it if you have a power commander under the seat. Is this the case?

I have been pleased with my Mustang Super Solo. I'm also 6-1 and it moved me back and down just a touch.

I have a PC-V under my C&C Seat, it's a tight squeeze and you have to play with placement a bit but it is manageable. I have the connectors pushed into a small gap in front of the battery on the left side. It's tight, but it works.
