Seat mods?

My Mustang Wide Vintage w/Backrest is in a bag in the closet unless I'm doing a trip over 400 miles round trip.

Thanks man! How does the memory foam feel / act compared to stock? I figured it would just compress easier and take a conforming set to your *** until it's relieved of pressure. I couldn't really figure how it would help on long rides, but the memory foam I am use to messing with is probably a lot "softer" than they use.
...so it's all about memory foam and not gel then? I'm actually thinking of just modding her side of the Badlander now and leaving my spots alone for the time being.

The memory foam that MeanCity uses is dense and it takes about 10 minutes for it to conform to your butt bones, then it's like you forget about the seat altogether. Compared to stock, the memory foam distributes your weight better and it is constantly taking up the vibes and the shock from the road.
I don't have personal experience with gel, but I do know a few guys that do and they said that the gel will get so hot that you can't sit on it if it's in the sun a long time. I live in the desert so gel ain't for me.
There's a couple more pics showing the Nightster seat in my profile.

Check out the seat. It's an '08 Nightster seat that's been reworked by MeanCityCycles with memory foam. It looks exactly the same as a stock only a whole lot more comfortable. A really nice daily rider.

+1 Mean City Cycle, they did my VTX1800 seat. Call them + talk to Allen, let him know what you want to accomplish. That look you have now is great, don't blame you for wanting to keep it. They work by appt only, so your seat must be there on appt date + it's done same day. Took 6 days total for me to them + back. Might be able to PU a cheap rpl here or fleabay, then sell for what yah paid when yours comes back. MCC cust service is the GREATEST!
