Default RG - best seat

I'm 6' with a 32" inseam. What seat do you like best and why? My '09 is on its way.

For long distance riding I use a Mustang touring seat. I am 6"2 with a 32 inseam. I can ride for hours without a$$ burn!

I've had two Road Glides and no contest, Mustang. Now I've got an Electra Glide.. you guessed it, Mustang. I've tried most of them and by far and away the most comfortable.

I have had C&C, Mustangs and a Corbin. Liked the C&C and Mustang best BUT, my 09 Road Glide OEM seat is pretty comfy, so far. Mind you I haven't put a whole day in on it but a lot of my friends with 08 amd 09 bikes like the factory seat a lot, so I decided before I buy a seat I may not need I would put some miles on this and see. BYW I am 6'2' 33 inch inseam and heavy duty LOL

I'm with Mike on this one - the stock seat on my '08 Road Glide was plenty comfortable without being overly large. I have spent all day on that seat without complaint. But the passenger portion was a bit too small for long distance touring with the wife, so I ended up trying some other options.

The stock seat from an Ultra/Electra Glide was very comfortable for both of us, but looked a bit "bulbous". I'm now running a Mustang Regal and it looks a bit better than the Ultra seat and is very comfortable as well.

I like Mustang seats, but the Sundowner works just great for me and 1/2 the price (with discount) of a Mustang.
