Mustang Seat Owners!!! 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Hello! I here some saying that the Mustang seat sits you lower, and some and I think most say it sits you higher! The mustang website also says it sits higher! Just wondering as maybe I'll come across a deal someday! I don't want to sit higher thats for sure!!!

I have one and I'd say it sits you forward but not any lower I don't think. When I put my looney seat on my knees are up around my ears..

lumbar support is good if you have the passenger seat on

Mustang Seat puts you a little lower & a little farther forward. i needed to get foloor board extenders from Billjr. after I got the seat, but I love it & so does the wife (we all know how important that is). And the lumbar support is awesome especially compared to the stock seat.

the stock seat is wider hence it takes up some inseam. The mustang pushes you forward a bit, hence higher, look at the frame it goes up as you go up the tank. Its not by much though.

I know the frame goes up, but it depends on how the seat is built. The looney will put you forward, but you will sit allot lower. I'm Tall, and have heard bot + and - for tall folk for the Mustang!

Re:Mustang Seat Owners!!! 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
My mustang seat appears to be about 2" lower than my friends identical 07 RS* with a stock seat. Moved me forward, but my road pegs are adjustable, so can still stretch (I'm 6'3" out on the bike. The lumbar support is great. I have some issues with my back, yet I am able to ride 400 miles (longest trip so far) in one day without noticeable pain.
