how a seat "looks" only matters when the bike is parked.
how a seat feels should be the prime consideration.
and if you keep her happy ( well...best you can) then you'll be happier
all the touring models ( of same frame series) can interchange seats- if it takes an ultra seat to make the miles easier- then go for that...used ultra seats are cheap- under $100
as far as looks, it should only matter what you see through the windscreen.
extreme examples are the show bikes- which have a "look" and are applauded for being duckpaddled across a parking lot.
I do use a 09/10 version SG seat when solo on my FLHTC- but swap to the stock ultra seat when carrying a passenger or going distance.
My SG seat gives great support for twisties, but only good for 4 hours...painful at 6

I love my Mustang solo. I can run it solo most of the time, and it only takes 30 secs to install pass. seat for the wife. I have a drivers backrest that can easily be switched to pass. backrest so I do not need 2. Very comfortable seat for me, and the pass. seat is available in 2 widths. If you are not leaving it on all the time, get the wider one for when she's along.

i've got a russell day-long after trying a number of seats to include mustang. its fugly but my *** can't see it but it sure can tell the difference when its not on. as mentioned earlier, when you find the right combination its great although it might cost you a dollar or two to get the right one cause you seldom find it on the first try.
