I bought a Mustang when I was in Sturgis in 06. They told be if I don't like it to return
it in a couple of days. I was headed home, so I figured 800 miles should do it...........
My better half loved it as I did, but she wanted HEAT. At the time it was not offered,
so I asked to return it, and all I had to do was pay the UPS bill. They were real nice
and allowed me to do so. I found out last year that they have vendors who do heat,
so guess who has another one!

Mustang's advertising a heated touring seat now. :)

I am very surprised at all the props for Mustang Seats, I picked one up in Phoenix and it was the worst seat I have ever had. They were really good about taking it back but still. I guess I have a strange bum. I am going to get a Corbin like I always have in the past, I just thought I would try something different this time.

I have a mustang solo on my Fatboy.  I really like that seat.  I did not like the looks of the Mustang solo for the CVO roadglide, just not hotrod enough.  I thought the Danny Gray Big solo was the best looking solo and figured I would give it a try.  I have 28,000 miles on it.  It is not as comfortable as my mustang, even with the Gray having gel inserts.  It does look better. 

I am seriously thinking about trying the Corbin solo.  I just wonder if I will find it to hard like I do the Danny Gray.

Well we have three SEEG's and a SERG all have Corbin's love them I've been coast to coast well dam close missed it by hundred miles and no problems with the seat or my butt, corbin seats are like wearing bikenstock shoes there very hard until you break them in.

I put a Sundowner seat on the Road King right off the showroom floor and it has done well for me and the daughter but I think the foam is wearing out. It does not seem as comfortable as it was two years ago. I am thinking about having it reworked at a custom shop. My wife has had two seats done by this shop and was well, pleased.

Do the seats and foam give out over time? If so how many years do you expect to get before comfort wanes? Bed mattress foam does not last forever so do motorcycle seats?

I guess either you didn't have it long enough or your right, butts are different! When I can do
800 mile days.....I know I got the right seat. The first Mustang I bought, I thought was WAY too
hard, but I was told to ride it a while. Got better each trip, so it worked for me. I had friends
that bought Corbin's, and returned them many times for quality issues, hope they work for you.

I put 720 or so miles in that seat and it felt the same @ 50 as it did at 720, that is all the time I would give an $1100 seat, I was thinking I would put some type of gel insert in it but for that much money I shouldn't have to. I have been very fortunate in that I have always had a place in the bay area so getting a Corbin seat is just a short ride away to the factory. Custom ride height and position can really ease the back pains, shoulder pains etc.

I would have to say your right we are very lucky it's just a short ride for a lot of us here in Cali to ride directly to Corbin and watch them make the seat and fit it to us perfectly, We get to set on them before they cover them add more foam or cut more off.
