Default Looking for the perfect seat

Hi guys,

i'm looking for an ultimately, comfortable, good looking 2up seat, with a good back support for the rider (no backrest) for my bike, i'm 6" tall.
Any advice?
Thanks

This is my bike.....i don't like the seat look, and it's not comfortable for long trips.....

Check out your local Harley Dealer. They should have demo seats that you can try out on your bike. Even if one of theirs is not right for you it will give you a better idea what to look for in other brands.

Every *** is different. You just gotta try different seats. Find a place within driving distance that has some demos from various manufacturers. H-D brand isn't generally considered the best or most comfortable seat. Be prepared to spend $500

I put a danny gray seat on my rocker a few years ago and it is awesome.
My seat has saddle gel and never unconfortable.
I would not get a seat without it or the new air version.
My brother bought a diff. One without saddle gel and is very uncomfortable alot!! Which makes him cranky...lol.
Ride safe.

I was looking at Mustang seats and then I found a HD Signature series seat, the driver backrest comes off and fit in my bag, seat is better than I thought it would be and after about 4 hours last weekend I put the backrest on, nice to have.
