Default Mustang Vintage or Vintage Wide pics on a FXDWG?

I'm currently deciding these two-- I have an 11 DWG and was hoping to see what either of these seats looked like since I cannot locate a local dealer... Currently leaning toward a vintage wide from everything I've already read here on the forum..

So I'm hoping someone can post up some pics of their rides with either saddle... thanks!

Wow, nice ride man, seat looks good as well-- How many miles/hours have you logged in a single sitting with that seat? I'm 6'5" 240--(36/36 jeans) how does this compare?

Wide Vintage Solo here. Some people think the wide is visually too wide for the bike, but I disagree.

Cool, so you've got exactly the same bike as mine (different mods) but is your seat the Vintage or Vintage wide? Do you mind if I ask your height/weight?

Thanks

I'm 5' 11" and right about 200 lbs, so a little smaller than you. Longest day is 400 miles and can easily ride through a full tank of fuel without feeling uncomfortable. If I ever get a different bike getting another seat like this will be my first mod.

I finally broke down and bought the Wide Vintage Solo and pillion, it is wide, but damn it is the most comfortable seat I have ever had the pleasure of spending hours in.
Sold my 2-up, and selling my Tripper solo too. Too many seats in my little garage.

Heres my bike when I had the Wide Glide front end. This is a Mustang Wide Vintage. Aesthetically, it IS to big for the bike IMHO. That being said, it is one damn comfy seat. So whats your priority? Is a better looking seat more important than a better feeling seat? Both are important and at $450 for a seat, you want the right one the first time.
