Lots of discussions here on this subject and you'll find a "yes/no/maybe" answer for pretty much any question you ask on the subject. unclecurt pretty much nailed it.
I had the Mustang Wide tour for 60000 some thousand miles and thought it was good until i put a Sundowner on the bike...WOW...i also have a air pro pad...same as the circulator pad and it work very well also...
I have run a sundowner on my night train for 2 up but picked up a corbin dueltour on the streetglide that I have now. (great seat but firm) Seems like Mustang and corbin are the popular aftermarket choices if you dont go with HD products.
I've heard good things about Mustang seats but no experience with them. I have the sundowner and like it alot over stock seat. Not as much room for the wife as the stock seat though
I have the Sundowner. I have nothing to compare it to other than the stock seat. And I have Sundowner on my Sporty, with over 70,000 miles logged on that seat.
Not saying it's the best, but I like them. Guess my butt just fits well with the Sundowner seats.

It comes down to what works for you, but the Harley Sundowner works well on my Road King.
+1 , sundowner for me too...
if it helps...I did try a corbin seat and the one I had was kind of like a bowl so it made it more uncomfortable to put my legs down at stops. I mention this because you wrote the RK seat was wide at the front.
