I gave up on my Mustang solo
However, I think I might see your problem if that's you sitting on the bike in your picture - it appears the seat is way too forward for your height, you seem to be sitting on the back rim of the seat, which will definitely kill your tailbone. Is the seat as far aft that it can go?

i have a corbin and CC seats, CC is the best deal and easy to work with, Corbin makes a good seat when they get it right, customer service is just ok so you need a little patience but it is a great seat. you can call them and order direct form Corbin, i like the leather on the corbin a bit more, it is thicker with a cobble stone grain. Im sure you can sell your new mustang. I also had meancity fix my 2 up seat, they did a nice job on it. Corbin and CC designs have more back supprt and firm on the butt which is a good thing. Good luck.

I had the same experience. Did 500 on a mustang solo, then sent it back to the factory for my money back. I thought it was too soft - my back hurt and had pain in the back of my legs. They have great customer service. I had been riding a corbin solo and thought I could get more comfort with the mustang. I was wrong. At least for my butt, corbin rules.

So far the stock seat has felt good to me. I have never rode on a mustang or corbin though, so I have no comparison. Leaving on a 9-10 day trip next week so maybe I'll be looking into one then. By the way, does anybody have any thoughts on HD's custom seat program? I've been thinking of doing that as a solo option.

I also have the Mustang solo and it's very comfortable - not soft at all. However, I think I might see your problem if that's you sitting on the bike in your picture - it appears the seat is way too forward for your height, you seem to be sitting on the back rim of the seat, which will definitely kill your tailbone. Is the seat as far aft that it can go? In my situation I sit just about in the middle of the seat, however, I'm only 5'7".
