Default Street Glide Seats
The stock streetglide seat feels great to me. Solid and sets me back away from the fairing so I don't feel crowded by it. Anyone know how the passenger seat is for long rides (600+ per day)?

If you made most OL's ride on one of those seats for 600 miles they would never speak to you again.........(does that answer your question??)

Of course most riders think the front parts sucks also by about the 100 mile mark......

I don't mind the stocker but the OL hates it after about 15 minutes.

Dump the OL! [sm=laughingsmilie.gif]

Seriously most people like the Corbins for long distances. To me the Mustangs feel a little too soft. I think once you get used to the Corbins you will never go back.

I'm happy with the stock seat also, but the wife hates it. I had a Mustang seat on my 01 RK which was pretty comfortable. The MOCO makes a Sundowner two up for the SG, part # 51630-06.

I put a big touring seat on mine from the Harley Dealer. I never had a Corbin or even sat on one. The stock seat felt like a brick, I try to do a few long rides a year and with a brick that don't work. I would like to try a corbin.
