Wink Which solo seat?

Greetings again. Rode the new Sportster home this week and am already looking to customize. I'd like to know which solo seat offers the most comfort and style. Thanks all.

Well I have the HD solo reach seat and love it! It looks great, is comfortable and it only cost about $150.00 at the dealer. I recomend this seat to anyone and you can't beat the price.

Mustang is very comfortable, I also have a reach solo but it seems to move me to far forward.

Well that is the point of the reach seat-it move's you forward and down a bit. I still think the Reach solo seat is the best bang for the buck hands down.

yes, that is the point of the reach solo, but I'm not quite 5'11", so if you are shorter the reach might work best for you. The Mustang works great for me.

I've got the Mustang Vintage Wide Solo seat and love it!

It probably puts you back and down a bit.

Far more comfortable than the stocker.

You can pick up a used stock Sportster solo cheap and have it customized by Mean City. Great look (IMHO), confortable (after the Mean city work) and cheap for basicly a custom seat.

I used the mustand wide solo with backrest for a year before I sold the bike, wish my new bike was as comfortable. I have a really bad back, and the mustang support was outstanding.
