Default Whats a Good Two Up seat?

I am a fairly big guy, 6:4 285lbs my wife is of average height and build, my stock seat on my 03 FLHTI sometimes make my *** throb.
Any good suggestions on a comfortable seat that will not break the bank?

can't help you with the right one but can on the wrong one.. stay away from diamond custom seats.. mark hartco doesn't listen and sends what he wants.. a waste of hard earned cash

Many in this forum talk about how great Mean City Cycles is. Send'em your seat and tell them exactly what you want. They'll put better foam in, gel, move you up, down, back, etc.

Tough question because everyone's *** and opinion is different. Sundowner if you want a good seat thats not very high priced.

Myself and my wife pretty much match your sizes. Not the cheapest, but we love the Corbin Dualtourer. Becasue its firm, and with our size, we don't do well on softer seats where our tailbone wants to bounce or rest on the plastic seat pan. Love it.

Mustang Super Touring seat and never, ever cotton underwear. Underarmor type moisture wicking underwear WILL add miles to any seat!

You can find a used Sundowner on this site periodically, and that is the best for the $$$. That's what I use.

I did the seat mod thing and was not impressed.

Sundowner or the heated version, Sunray. All-day comfort.

Try one at your dealer, I believe they have a seat-testing program going now that lets you try it before you buy it.
