Saw one of those on Ebay today, looks like it would ride good. If you would, let me know what you think of it.

At Houston. A few weeks ago I was on here asking bout seats and a lot of folks suggested the mustang wide solo seat. I got the seat off of eBay for around 238 I believe. The seat is great. Im a decent sized guy at 6'0 215 and ride a XL 1200l. 09. I was feeling all the bumps. The seat has made the ride so much smoother. I probably sit an inch taller in the seat but its no biggie unless your into the bobber type style. Still gonna do shocks and springs when I can. But the seat was a great investment for sure.

Mac10 - thanks for the info. I'm thinking that's the route I'm going to go. The Mustang Wide Vintage Solo sounds like the seat for me.

You will not be disappointed with the Mustang seat.Keep in mind if you want to retain the gap between the front of the seat and the rear of the gas tank (like the Nightster is stock)buy the seat for the 4.5 gallon tank.The seat for the 3.3 gallon tank fills the gap.

Thanks for the tip. I plan on getting a 4.5 tank down the road, so that's good info to have! Thanks again!
