Keep your eye on it early on to see if it develops any creases. I mentioned quality control before because I know 4 people including me that their seats developed creases after just one ride and all were purchased by a vendor other than Mustang. The creases are not normal and has something to do with improper setting of the glue, according to Mustang.
The conspiracy theorist in me, makes me think some vendors buy imperfections from Mustang at a greatly reduced price, then re-sells them at a lowered price than manufacturer, making you think you're getting a good deal and still makes a nice profit. Of course I could be completely wrong on that.
I got mine from Dennis Kirk and it developed 2 very long crease after the first ride. I called Kirk and they said call Mustang. Mustang was not happy that Kirk wouldnt do anything about it but happily took my seat back and re-glued and covered. Many miles later and its still perfect. Props to Mustang for standing behind their products.
Just sayin, hoping yours remains crease free.

I ordered mine from a vendor. He told me over the phone the seat would ship straight from Mustang. I've had mine over 6 months and it still looks new. You can't beat Mustangs customer service. I saw them at Myrtle Beach Rally last year. The rep gave my wife a longer adjustment screw for her Rider backrest.

My wife has a Mustang seat on her bike and absolutely loves it, I'm going to get a solo seat soon and right now Mustang is right at the top of my list.

I had a Mustang solo on my last bagger. It was a great seat. I put over 75,000 miles on it with zero problems.
