From the posts I have read it seems there are three aftermarket seat manufacture's that are well liked over stock. I would be interested in seeing what everyone thinks is the best one.

Corbin

Mustang

Saddleman

mustang touring for softail absolutely transformed my 90 springer--have since don several 600 plus mile days with no problem!!!!

You should have included HD seats - as in Sundowner, Badlands etc.

Mustang.


While Corbin makes good seats, their customer service is atrocious unless you are able to ride to their store. Even the majority of Corbin owners will admit this.

My Mustang has been on a 97, 99 and 02, and still is as good as new after well over 100K combined.

I've tried a Mustang on a 97 Roadking. I found it sat too high for me. My ass is built close to the ground. Switched to a Corbin and I love it.

I've had Corbin's on my last three bikes. The last two were Dual touring seats. They're heavy out of the box and "rock hard" would be a fitting description. It takes about 1000 miles to get it to feel right. But after that look out! Four hundred miles + on a Sportster Custom a day was very do-able. It was the first accessory I put on my Heritage Springer.

On the other hand, their customer service is nothing less than laughable though. They had a display at Americade this year and when I (tried) to talk to them about the concerns I had about my present seat it felt like I was playing the old shell game with them. What it amounted to was" it's not right.......but it's yours now."

But I keep going back. They do know how to make them for the long haul.

Anything but HD !!

Corbins are too stiff/firm
I went with Lepera.

Com'n folks speak up!!!!!!! My '02 RK classic seat suxs, It's good for the 1st 2-3 hours of ass time, but after that it is about every hour that I gotta break, and it gets worse........as George T. said "BAD to the BONE"

tell it!

looking for a solo seat for my 2002 flht. looking at corbin classic or mustang solo. I am concerned about the height as I am 5`9. Anybody know if these seats would be taller or lower? Thanks Shag

I've got to put a BIG thumbs-up to Russell Day-Long saddles. I put one on my bagger and have done several thousand-mile days, including a 1200-mile day returning from Sturgis to Seattle in one day. Never a bit of butt burn at all. Hands down better than Mustang or Corbin seats I've had.

Mustang seats for me!
I have had one on a Dyna Glide and a softail. Can cruise for 500 miles or so with no problem after 1200 mile break in.

I,ve got a Danny Gray for 2 up riding on my FXDWG, expensive but I find it very comfortable...

I love Corbin seats, second choice is Mustang. It would be nice if Mustang used leather like Corbin.

 

[Markcuda]

I would think that the leather seat would not be as user friendly. Would the vynal(sp) be a better seat?

 

[Macca7275]

Corbin for me and I must be the lucky one with no problems on the customer service

 

[LeatherNLace]

We had a corbin on ours and my butt hurt so bad after about an hour of riding so we went back to the stock seat. It still hurts but I don't think as bad.

 

[DJW]

J-LO!
Oh...MAKES the best seat....
Never mind.

I just put a Corbin Hollywood Solo on my Fatboy. I was expecting a firm seat, and that's just what I got. I only put about 40 miles on today, so I can't comment on the long ride comfort. So far, it's firm, but comfy. Although when I ordered the seat, I wasn't looking for comfort anyway, I was just looking for a small seat, so i'm not too concerned how comfy it is. My butt seems pretty tolerable to most seats.

I went with a Mustang vintage solo with pasenger pillion on my 2000 FLHPI. Luv it. I can do 600 mile days no problem. It took the pressure off my tailbone, I can't sit in a soft seat for long. Like Goldielocks said - "this one is just right".

Corbin all the way!
