Hi sbob17, I have a 2020 Deluxe I bought in November with 500 miles on it and it had a Mustang Solo seat on it. It was comfortable but I wanted a pillion so I took the Mustang off and now have it on the Softail Classifieds on this forum. If you decide to do a Mustang, mine is half the price of a new one. PM me or reply and I'll send you the pics and info.
I have an Heritage classic 2022 and I liked the stock seat but my wife don't liked because she was always slipping. I bought a Mustang seat et all it's good now.
Great thread! Been wondering myself. Just purchased a used 2019 Heritage with 13k on it and the stock seat. Stock seat is not too bad, but I had an Ultimate on my previous motorcycle (Indian Chieftain) and it was absolutely perfect. Started saving the $$$ so I can order the Ultimate for the Heritage. Was super excited when I saw they made one for the Heritage.

All other seats that I've tried on my '18 Heritage were torture devices. The RDL on the other hand is exceptional - truly a day long seat for me. My wife has sung it's praises too.
Some threads where I talk about the RDL experience...
I custom ordered a Saddlemen Explorer and returned it because it was like sitting on a pancake griddle. The gel soaked heat like a sponge.
Next I tried the stock seat with an American Leathers sheepskin cover and a grasshopper backrest. The backrest was removable but not folding which made it terribly awkward to use and the sheepskin covered stock seat was basically pain with a bandaid on top.
I’m by no means saying it’s the best and I won’t even rave about it but I will say it’s tolerable for about 3 tanks full and that’s my Harley Hammock seat w/ Folding Backrest…
As far as I'm concerned, there's only ONE seat for the Heritage. That's the old style "deluxe solo seat" #52006-47B, mounted to the spring seat kit. Simply the most comfortable seat I've ever ridden on a motorcycle.
Yes, the OEM passenger seat will fit with it.
What spring kit fits this seat on a 2022 Heritage 114?

I used the spring seat kit that Harley sells for the '18 up Softail Slim with a few modifications. I detail what I did in this thread, starting at post 5:
