Seats.... 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
My original 04 Roadstar seat ws comfortable, my WIfe said the back seat was not.... sooooo... purchsed a Mustang seat with drivers backrest... Wow... rode 471 miles last Saturday and felt fine afterwards. with the old seat my tailbone would hurt after about 30 minutes of riding..... simply does not happen with the Mustang seat.. seems the crease in the seat helps.

Re:Seats.... 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
So, Guys, how do your women like the Mustang rear seats? Finally getting my wife to ride a little, but she doesn't like the rear fender rack one bit!! Talked to Mustang, and it'll be 2-4 weeks before I can get a rear to match my Solo seat.

Re:Seats.... 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
the Mustang saddle was definately an upgrade for me. Two weeks ago, I rode 750 miles in one day (15 hours)and it was my right hand and not my butt that made me stop. It is a very comfortable seat, even without the back rest, the pillion provides some back support.

Regarding the Pillion or rear seat, the additional width will now allow my wife to ride most of an hour rather than 15 minutes.

wife loves the mustang, much thicker and comfortable than stock. She despised the stock pillon.

Re:Seats.... 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
When I first installed my Ultimate I thought "Cr** what have I done". I thought the seat pushed me too far forward and wasn't at all happy with that. But since I had a wolf stitched in I couldn't return it so I had to live with it. It didn't take very long for my butt to really enjoy the seat. I got use to the forward position and have the mounts to move the floorboards forward a little. I'm 6'1" @ 235 lbs.

"Bolt a recliner on top of the trailer." That's Funny.
Hey, wait a minute! It might work, I'll get my tape measure!
