Just added a Corbin Hollywood Solo and I love it. Not the greatest pics but you get the idea. It's hard to see, but it has diamond stitching that comes standard for the Road King. You can see it better on their website.

This is a harley seat. Pretty comfy for a low profile solo seat. I kept the seat and sold the RK. It also comes in Brown.

In my sig pic is the Mustang wide solo seat w/ backrest. It's also comfy and looks nice.

The OP said, "...also want comfort". I've got a Corbin "Classic Solo" on my 2002 RKC. I would describe this seat as being almost rock-hard. But oddly, I find that to be extremely comfortable.

When you spend all day, or all week, in the saddle, sometimes a seat that is softly padded, can turn out to be one that is less comfortable. After awhile, you kind of bottom-out through all the padding. Or else maybe they have quilted patterns or decorative buttons on them, which eventually start to make an impression on your backside, so to speak.

Anyway, my point is, that I find the Classic Solo to be very comfortable... but it is definitely NOT a soft, cushy seat. Good luck on your quest!

My 01 RK with a Mustang seat and backrest as solo set-up. Also have the matching passenger pillion w/passenger backrest, and a matching tour pack backrest for varied set-ups. People freak out when they feel how hard Mustang seats are but they are very comfortable IMO once broken in.

Here's my Danny Gray, as PWP stated this seat is hard as well. Takes about 500 milestone break in, the only seat I have more comfortable is my hammock. The orginal seat has double memory foam from MCC's its not even close.
