I've replaced my stock Harley Heritage Classic with a Mustang "Sport Solo"
with Passenger rear seat. Its no better than the stock one. Hard as a rock.

Many people have said to me that it needs to be broke in! Well its a year
old and has about 18,000 km on it. Should be broke in by now.

So now I'm looking again!

Anybody have any experience with the Saddlemen gel seats?

Or any better options?


Thanks
Chuck

Agreed, Russell makes the most comfortable seat out there - even if it is
butt-ugly. Then again, it is a butt you're worried about pleasing so...

Sounds like you're a little bit sour on ustang but .......I don't think
there is a more comfortable seat than a Mustang Touring Saddle for softails.
I put one on my FLSTFI a few years ago and it's just light years ahead of
anything else I've tried in terms of quality and comfort. It looks sharp too
with the conchos and tassels. These ain't cheap but you get what you pay for
!
I could ride on a bad seat 25 years ago but 200 miles on a stock seat is too
much to contemplate.
