    They ain't sexy, but for me, they are the best I've ever found. Wife has one and she agrees.

    Mustang seat because it's 1 inch lower. I can now put both feet down firmly on the ground.

A location of a Revolutionary battle field and an American victory over the British in the Autumn of 1777. Let us give thanks to all Veterans past and present for their sacrifice.

    I've had a Corbin Saddle on my V-65 Sabre, Valkyrie Interstate, Can-Am Spyder RT-S, and now on my F6B. I find the Corbin's to be like a horse saddle where it's made to be firm but able to be broken in by your butt after about 2,500 miles or so!

    Nawww, don't worry Scotrod, just a generalization.
    Goldwings have always had a big, wide, thick seat. Honda never thinks at the other end of the spectrum.
    Please don't spook the road-sheep.

    Corbin

    I have the Corbin seat. But at the time that I was looking, I couldn't find a Mustang, which I had on previous bike, and loved. The Corbin is comfortable but I found an issue. One day I had a dead battery, because I apparently didn't close my saddle bags all the way, so the lights I have in them stayed on. Thankfully I was home, but with the Corbin seat mounted I can't pull the side covers to access the battery or fuse panel. Does anyone with a Mustang seat have the same issue.

    Getting the side covers off with a Mustang seat is tight, but it can be done without removing them.

    Ultimate King

    I would I could recast my vote in the poll. I just replaced my stock seat with the Ultimate King.
    Very comfortable on the short rides. I haven't had a chance to take a long ride yet.

    RDL

    I just had my 7th RDL made.
    This time for my steel steed 'Black Lighting' (been riding RDL saddles since 1979). I used their excellent ride-in service and could not be happier
    I rode 1,200 miles right from the factory just to break it in, naw I rode 1,200 miles because I could .

    I had RDL raise me 3" and set me back 4" so my legs are now bent at a very comfortable 90 deg. angel when on the pegs and I can finally use the rear brake and I'm still able to flat foot the ground when stopped. I could not use the rear brake with the stock saddle due to my size 16 foot and legs bent to far under me(knees were higher than my hips while setting on the OEM saddle). I had been riding with my right foot on my Ergo lll all the time and only front braking Amazing how fast you can slow this 700lb steed down with both front and rear brakes

    The one thing I did forget about was the shield....er...I have a KW flair on now which worked just fine, but with the RDL lifting me up 3" it is just to short, so it looks like I'm going with a Clearveiw large, sport tour, recurve with vent.

    The guy who invented the first wheel was an idiot -
    the guy who invented the second one... he was the genius!
