Have the Mustang on mine and what a difference. My buddy and I hit a ride to Mount Rainier today - it's about 100 miles from where we started to the Lodge area where you can look around a bit and he said he was sore at the 50 mile marker! On the Mustang you only stop cause you need gas!
Here's a pic from today with the seat...
Mines the Heritage Classic in front...

Thanks for all the info. Found out there is a custom seatmaker in Seattle I'm going to check out. It might be expensive, but when you have a $20K+ bike, what's a few hundred to keep your butt comfortable? After that ride, honestly, I was so sore, I felt like the "poster queen" for the local men's penitentiary. ![Big Grin](https://www.hdforums.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

I actually went out and looked at Road Kings yesterday and sat on a few and boy, was my posterior happy. As an older guy, the days of gutting out a lot of pain in favor of higher testerone levels ain't it.

The HD leather Ralleyrunner is a good choice if your looking for something that maintains some level of "sleekness". Its right in between the Badlander and the Sundowner. The Sundowner looks so bulbous on my Standard that it came off after 10 minutes and I went and ordered a Ralleyrunner. Wife and I both like it.

I'm another fan of Mustang seats, fit well and much more comfortable than the badlander.
I put a solo seat with fender bib on mine. They have different styles available, but mine is just fine for distance.

Going with the Non-studded Vintage Solo and one of the pillions (undecided which) that would fit it.
I've got a friend in the business that can order it from Drag, but they only have the vintage solo unless I want the full boat with backrests, which I don't.
Whata ya think?
Any of you Mustang guys with the studded or vintage solo have an opinion to offer. Just the plain solo I'm thinking would be ok.. though I don't necessarily have a skinny ****.
Looking for a better seat for 300+ miles per day.
The lapera solo (naturally) ain't cutting it.. even though it's actually better than the stock brick.

Another factor you might consider is taking your wallet out of your back pocket and but it in your front pocket. That alone made a huge difference to me.
