Seat Choices

There are so many seat choices and so many opinions on what seat to use it's killing my wallet. I have an 07 Ultra and could only get about 3 or 4 hundred miles before I got the dreaded flat a**. Everyone talked up the work that Mean City did on seats so that's what I did. Guess what it made mine worst for me. They may do good work but what they do isn't the ticket for me. Now I am torn between the Corbin Dual Tour or the Sundowner. Again you can get rave reviews on both but what is going to work the best? Guess I'll take a shot in the dark and try one and keep my fingers crossed. I have a 5 or 6 thousand mile trip coming up and need something better. Any thoughts here??

I'm not sure how different the seats for the Ultra and the softail are. I had the sundowner on my softail and stopped using it as the slope on the back of the rider's portion was such that it scooted me forward resulting in minimal back support. If I tried to scoot back for more back support, I would just slide down and forward.
