Finally, long distance not an issue.
Thanks to Corbin, I'm sure C&C or Mustang could have provided the same result. but I"m only a forty minute ride from Corbin. I got the Clasic solo with rider back rest and passenger pillion also had passenger back rest pad covered to match.
Now, I've only been on the Street Glide since March. But anything over two hundred miles on the stock seat left me wanting off the bike as soon as possible.
On Friday evening I rode over to my brothers house in Modesto, about 100 miles. Spent the night there and we left at 6:300 in the morning to meet up with his friend from work. Then we headed to Yosemite. Excellent ride.
I ended up doing over 400 miles by the time I rode home to San Jose. I should mention that I also added highway pegs just before this ride as well, what an awesome benefit they are.
A couple recent photos of the bike.
BTW, the black fork legs are on order, thought they would have been here by now.
And one of our final destination

In the long run it was more than just a seat change. At 6'4" and a size thirteen boot, I put extended shift and brake levers, apes and grips etc. But it was the seat that really made the biggest difference. I'm looking at moving the foot boards forward next.
In any case, you are correct. Gotta love touring bikes.
