I was nervous about getting the Bare Bones, but it just looked liked it belonged on the bike.....it flows perfectly with the lines of the tank and rear fender. To be honest....atleast to me....the Bare Bones is same stiffness as my stock Deluxe seat. No matter what....sitting in one position on anything for to long will get annoying, so I say get what you like lookswise. Look at all of the customs that have seat pans.....comfort varies from *** to ***.

If you decide to re-work, here's the link: http://www.meancitycycles.com/
Nice work and quick turn-around. You ship them your seat, they do whatever you want to it (move you forward or back, up or down) and ship it back to you.

Common now triple digits meaning what you fight to hit the 100 mark then jump off and rub that *** like you just got it prison style, or are we talking 180+ miles then its time to fill up again and get off.

I've been using the Corbin Hollywood Solo on the last at least 6 bikes and after the breakin there perfict for me 400/600 a day no problem, and thats hard to find in a Solo seat that looks good.. I also have a solo mustang and Lepera with gel, and the Lepera is a 20 min seat at best, The mustang is comfortable but dont like the looks, and it sets me up 1" and forward 1". The Corbin lowered me and set me back. Expensive . But worth every penny..

I went with the Corbin solo. When I was researching seats it appeared the Corbin was better quality and also uses a key for removal---don't have to worry about your seat being stolen. The seat is firm but loosened up a little in time. I do mostly day rides and I've never had a problem. I think you will be happy with any of the 3 brands you are looking at compared to the piece of **** HD stock seat. I never realized what a piece of crap it was until I looked at aftermarket seats. Good luck.

I'm surprised people are still buying Corbin, with all the quality and customer service problems they've had in the past. I heard it was better if you went in to their shop for a custom fit.
If you do any amount of riding, you can't beat having a seat custom fit and with the proper type of foam for support. This is where I had mine done: http://www.richscustomseats.com/
