Voted "other" HD. Happy with the HD "low" which I believe was a running change that replaced the stock seat on my 09.

The "Cadilac" of motorcycle seats is The Ultimate, none better, trial period with return gaurentee. They can do this because no one sends 'em back. The metric bike owners have used this seat for years. Harley owners are slow to catch on or price runs them off, which I dont understand.

Drag Specialties Pinstripe Solo, very comfy.



Pillion clips securely onto studs that come with the seat . They sell adjustable backrests too.

Harley dual heated Hammock, 1800 miles in three days and not one issue made me a believer!

I have an ultra classic and I am 6'4". I went with the mustang super touring because I needed to move back. The only other seats that would do that was the Harley tallboy and a custom made c&c. I did not choose the tallboy because every Harley seat I have used in the past, including the sundowner, hurt my butt. I did mot choose the c&c sport tour because it was quiet a bit more narrow than most touring seats. So that left me with the mustang. It is way more comfortable than any Harley seat, but I do get aches after several hundred miles. I would try something else such as memory foam or maybe even Corbin if they ever made a tall person seat.

I just found a company online called ultimate seats that is making a tallboy seat. Anyone running one of these? How does it compare to the mustang?

Well seats are like what handle bars are best I think. Just depends on the rider. I don't care for the big fluffy seats. I went with a C&C. Moved me back an inch and lower. It has padding like a Corbin not a big pad. The big paded seats I tried all pack down after some miles? I do not do iron butts so went with what I thought would work for my riding. I think my next seat I will look at Danny Gray with the Air Hawk option if I was looking for a long ride seat. Happy shopping lots of choices and opinions.
