i'd call the seat a real pain in the butt (pun intended!). good to hear you got a decent seat, i have the mustang and swear by it. stay safe and enjoy the ride...

 

I swapped the stock seat on my 06 1200C for the Sundowner before riding away from the dealer. Put a matching touring backrest on a short sissy bar and have no complaints. If you plan to ride any significant distances, I recommend you upgrade your seating.

Which begs the question from the masses: What to do with the stock seat? Its not in the catalog. Is there a market for them and what is a good asking price for a take-off stock seat?

 

I did the same thing and bought a Sundowner from a board member...got a really good price. I love the seat so far...but will really find out this weekend with 300 miles planned.

I'm going to keep my stock seat and play with it some. I'm going to redo the padding with some memory foam and gel pads and see if I can make it more comfortable. I'm also going to buy a Reach solo seat for local riding.
