if you're tall, then i'd sure suggest a stock roadglide seat. it doesn't drop you into a saddle like the stock sg seat does. and it's a much flatter platform with a rise to the passenger section. the passenger section is much more comfortable as well. i got one out of the classifieds section for cheap, it was a take off from an 09 roadglide. i tried the sundowner, and on a 700 mile day, it was much worse than the stock sg seat. the roadglide seat will raise you up an inch or so. if you're tall, it's about as good as you can find. and it matches the console with its stitching perfectly. for me, it's the best bang for the buck. got mine for $125 shipped. check the classifieds section in this forum if you're wanting one. sure, corbin, mustant, lepara, etc, would be nice. but i'm really happy with the roadglide seat.

I bought a seat for an Ultra on eBay and had Mean City custom fit it to me and my wife. So far this year, 4 500 mile + days and I am still loving it. Last fall, we took a two week trip to SC and TN (from Maine) and we rode all day each day with no issues. Yep, maybe it don't look the greatest compared to the stocker, but after 50 or 60 miles, I hated that seat...

Sport Tour for the baggers. Excellent quality custom seat for around $300.
Had one on my last two bikes and couldn't be happier

having faced the same question I chose the corbin dual. While I wanted better comfort I also wanted a sleek, out-of-the-ordinary look, including some color, in a dual seat. The sundowner and mustangs, although comfortable, are all basic black...yawn. The Corbin gave me a choice of finishes (chose ostrich) and colors (chose a combination of black and gray trimmed in bugundy, which tied-in my paint scheme). As for comfort, it's more comfortable than stock. I have not owned a sundowner or mustang so I can't offer a comparison.
