mustang seat advice

All I can tell you is, for all day comfort, they can't be beat.
Mine's the Wide Vintage, and it's on a Heritage, not a Streetglide but with the rider backrest in place . . . It is one comfortable seat. My wife's 03 has the stock seat which I hate. Hate doesn't cover it. I put the Mustang on her bike if I ride it farther than to the gas station. It sets me 1" back, but 1" higher than the stock foo foo seat.
I believe the Mustang catalog stated for touring models it moves you back & lower, but I think thats for the Ultra style seat.

Good thread. I've been wondering about the Mustang seat height because I want to get a solo but I don't one any higher, in fact I would prefer one 1/2" or more lower. Thats because of the windshield height. If I get a taller seat I will get beaten to death by buffeting. My shield could stand another inch in height to be perfect. This is a tough one for me, I'm trying to avoid buying another windshield. However, installing wind deflectors recently helped, that might pull me through this where seat height doesn't have to be exact. I know there are other seat options out there, but you can't deny the popularity of the Mustang brand being you get feedback from multiple owners. Not so many with some other brands, speaking of which what about Saddlemen, La Pera? I know about Ultimate. Another advantage with the Mustang is you find more of them on the used market, giving you opportunity to buy them at a good price. Through all of this my main goal is comfort, but there are some variables attaining that goal.
