Default Finally found a seat I like for my 07 Fatboy.. PICS!

After trying 3 different seats I have FINALLY found one that I think 1) looks great and 2) is VERY comforable and 3) is practical.

I bought the Mustang Sports Vintage Solo with drivers backrest (picture below without the backrest).

Feedback welcomed...

Hey Dmac, I bought the same exact seat.
I like it a lot and it looks even better than I thought it would.
It covers up those rear mounting bolts perfectly too.

imboden, you can get two different sizes of rear pillon that just slips on and screws on the back.
A 6" wide one or a bigger 11" wide one.
Very easy to slide on and off.

Moved me a little forward which I must admit I wasn't ecstatic about.. especially when I went to do a uturn at the end of my street and the handlebar hit my right leg and I had to quickly put my foot down... but then again having said that I am just over 6 feet tall... I think I will get 2" extension kit for my forward controls at some point as I quite like having the legs stretched out in front.
