Default 2011 CVO Street Glide Seat

I really like the looks and limited feel of the 2011 CVO seat on the Street Glide. Anyone out there have any input or experience on this seat, comfort, fittment on a 2012 Street Glide?
How does the 2 up rideability of this seat compare to the Sundowner seat?

I have it on my 2012 Roadie right now and I love it. You hear people say it sucks but I havent had any problems with it. Most I did in one day with it was 550 miles and had some pains on the last 50 miles. Other than that, its fine. Passengers dont really notice but I dont have passengers for longer than a few miles at a time. Never rode a sundowner seat so i dont know how it compares to that seat, but I know I for one like the looks of the CVO as a solo and with the passenger pillion.
