Default Harley Hammock seat v. Mustang Touring
I have a 2009 Road King Classic and love the bike but the seat is literally a pain after about 2hrs. I'm thinking about replacing with the Harley Hammock Touring seat with heat or the Mustang Touring seat with heat. Any input on which might be more comfortable for the long haul? I'm 6'3" so any seat that puts me closer to the ground or the controls is probably not what I want. Thanks for input.

I have the Mustang Wide Touring NO heat and the seat raises you slightly 1/2in or so and is very comfortable
