Good idea. I need to put more of an effort in..... but I don't smoke.... perhaps I could substitute a glass of bourbon!

Yup
Done it with beer and bourbon, too. I have a couple of nice, old, broken in couches out there and the Mustang is more comfy. It truly is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Just got an e cig so I think the days of smoking a cig on her are numbered...

Matt
Please post some pictures. I have a 2013 custom and will be seat shopping in the spring. Thanks.

I just upgraded from the wide solo to the same seat with a backrest. It feels perfect. I can't wait to take a ride and try it out. Damn freezing rain needs to go away!!!!!

I think you made an excellent choice. A seat is something you should be able to sit on for hours without even thinking about it, and the Mustang Solo does that for me. The stocker on my 2005 XL1200R made me have to stop after one hour to get the feeling back in my butt. I researched extensively, got the Mustang Solo, and it made all the difference in the world. It's not something I have to think about anymore. I simply get on the bike and go until I need gas. Fuel up and keep on going with no thought about it because there is no discomfort with the seat.

Well the seat was delivered yesterday but...... it was the wrong one. I discovered the website I ordered from had some incorrect information on their website related to the Mustang Vintage Solo seats for sportsters. I am sending it back for an exchange. Unfortunately I will now have to wait a little while longer before I get it on my bike.

i will definitley post some pics once I finally get it on the bike.

You should have them refund your money and buy mine and save some money.
