As said before, the stock badlander seat was torture. I bought a Mustang for comfort and I think it looks good as a solo also!

Got the stock Badlander for anything under 150 miles and the Sundowner for my 57 year old butt for over 150 mi..

Comfort Number 1. Changed my Sportster seat out after only a few weeks - most uncomfortable thing ever. Comfort is why I am getting the FXSTC with that big sofa on it.

I don't usually like polls, but this one is too good to skip. The stock seat on my 07 Fat Boy was as hard as a folding metal chair with less back support than the metal chair.

It took me 10000 miles to break in my badlander, but it's cozy now. I bought a sundowner for me & the wife.

I rode 500 miles one day on a stock HD seat. I can't describe the black and blue and yellow bruises I had on the insides of my thighs for about a week.

I ordered a new Mustang touring seat. Made that same 500 mile ride with nary a discomfort. Heaven. (This was on my Heritage.)

Options I do not believe were covered in this poll

Option D) Because I gotta killer case of hemoroids
Option E) Because I fell asleep in San Francisco and need a softer seat now
Option F) I take Xenical and farted on my old seat
Option G) Because my current seat is from Demonscycles and is falling apart
Option H) Because I fell asleep at Demonscycles and need a softer seat now

With so many seat threads, I'm wondering why people purchase another seat for their HD. What is the primary reason you replace your stock seat?
