Question Stock seat vs. Mustang Vintage Solo

I find the stock (2-up) seat.. (overly) firm and hard on the tailbone.

Anybody here have the Mustang Vintage Solo?

Is it a more comfortable seat?

I would really appreciate any comments.

I did a search and found many positive comments on the Mustang Solo.

Now...'standard' or 'wide'? I have a small butt but maybe a 'wide' would be even more comfortable?

What say you? Standard or Wide?

I have the standard and I like it. Much better then stock. I had a Sundowner on my last 1200-C and that was even more comfortable, but they dont look as good as the Mustang on a Sportster...

I went with the wide, not for me, but because the passenger pillion is wider also. I didn't think the passenger pillion for the regular mustang would be comfortable for the OL. If two up isn't a concern I think the regular would be fine.
