Waylon is dead, and Willie has been missing some gigs...You say "Hi" to "Waylon, Willie and the Boys"?
I chose the Mustang seat to get a little closer to the ground. A 30" inseam leaves my heels in the air. It would be a real confidence boost to get that 1" lower seat. Been avoiding taking the wife along on my rides because of the tippy toe stops.
I've use Doc Bailey's Leather Black on my Mustang seat and my bike has sat in the rain several times while parked at work. The seams seem to be sealed pretty well
as I've never experienced wetness.
My seat also looks like new after almost a year and a half of use.
Not affiliated but am a very satisfied customer. Just a little of the product goes a long way.

Well I ordered a Hartco seat today. I prefer a backrest so I decided against Mustang. Mark said it would be about 30 days.
I have no experience with Hartco Seats personally and I'm sure they are fine seats. I've read the info on the F6b seat and it seems as tho they are constructed with support
in all the right places etc.
BUT....It only shows two styles of seats for the B....a velour version(no thanks) and what appears to be a gray seat. Hmmm, where is the BLACK LEATHER option? It would seem that to be a no brainer. Do they not offer that or am I just missing something?
I have a Mustang Day Tripper seat that I'm happy enough with but just decided to check out the Hartco because I couldn't remember what they looked like.
Which style did you get?

I got black vynal wit no stitching. You can get two different patterns if you want. I also added the driver backrest. Look at the goldwing seats and it shows more options. This will be made to fit me and foam mixed for my weight.
I had a Hartco on my 2004 Wing. I wasn't crazy about the velour material but at that time, that's all Mark had according to the envelope he sent me for samples. I did some long rides with that seat and it did it's job. Did pull one 900 miler with it heading back to Texas from north of Denver in 2005 and I was whipped, the BUTT was just fine. It's been a few years, but I'd give Hartco a.....
I wanted a backrest. So, I purchased an Ultimate King seat. I could ride for days on it. Super comfy. You will still have to seal the seams or get the waterproof cover.
