Mustang Seats?
Hi All,
I'm thinking of purchasing a Mustang one-Piece studded touring that includes the rider and passenger seat all in one.
It can be seen here: http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/mu...k/part/M-76142
When I bought my bike it came with what I believe to be a Sundowner seat. That seat moved me up a quite a bit further and as such caused my legs to cramp up which was very uncomfortable. So I put the stock seat back on and had no problems.
I was at the dealership today and saw a used bike that had a mustang seat on it, and it looked pretty cool. Does anyone have experience with this brand of seats? I'm 5'11" btw and ride a 2007 Sportster 1200 custom.
Thanks!

+1 on the Mustang.
I'm 5.4 and I have the one piece Vintage w/ passenger pillion on my '06 883. Best investment I ever made. I've taken some really long distance rides on that seat. I just got back from GA a week ago Sunday and I was ready to play pool on my team that night (... after a shower of course). Call them up, they'll answer any questions you have and make suggestions accordingly.
Hope this helps.

I hated the stock seat on my XL1200L, it was too low and jammed me up to the tank so I got the mustang daytripper. It moved me up and back which is exactly what I wanted. I'm 5'8" and felt jammed in there with the stock seat plus it was hard as a rock.

daytripper was my second seat... much better than the first, but does not compare to the wide mustang. i could ride the day tripper for a coupla hours with no problem, but my +2 had less than an hour on that one. on the wide mustang, i can go as long as there is gas in the tank, and the +2 can go for well over an hour - i start hearing about her rear around an hour and half or so...
