I hear ya. I never had a Mustang, but always wanted one (they didn't make one for my last bike), so when I recently bought my SERG, I ordered one (2 pc Touring one w/rider backrest), and was a bit let down. I picked up the bike and rode it home 1,300 miles in 4 days (2 up), and after the longer days, I was a bit sore, and thought it didn't leave much room to move around (locked in one position). Being a Corbin fan, I think it's too soft.

So, I just sent it off to Mean City Cycles-it's going to get a firmer memory foam, narrower nose, and I asked for it to be slightly lower and back. I sure hope I'll be happy with it when I get it back, after spending so much on buying it, then having to modify it.

One good thing- my GF likes her seat (the 13" wide pillion), so no mod's necessary for half the seat.

BTW Fuzznuts, I saw your ad, and thought you missed a number in front of that $_75.00.....what a steal for somebody!!

Which one is too soft ?
 The mustang or the Corbin ?

the Mustang. It's on the way back from MCC, so we'll see how it is now.

I've ordered one of the new Mustang's but so far haven't received it.  Ordered from Jenni but I don't know what the problem is.  One piece of paper I got with another piece I ordered said "unavailable" so I hope that's not true.

"Which one is too soft ?

Having had both brands,  I would say the Mustang is softer.  But when you say "Too soft",  that's a personal observation and dependent upon how padded (or not) your azz is and how far (at one time) you plan on going without stopping.

I could handle about 300 miles or so on the Corbin and then I was all done.  Next day,  less than that.  Ended up (at HD 100 yr anniversary in Milwaukee),  buying a (gel pad) to make the return trip.   Now,  I own a Mustang seat but have not yet ridden that long of ride to compare...........I'm thinking the (softer) Mustang seat will prove out being more comfortable for an extended ride.

I just put the new mustang seat on mine and it feels much better to me then the first mustang seat i had   .  Too bad some jackazz  did a hit and run on my bike in a parking lot   Now I can't  enjoy my new seat until the new fender and outer fairing come in

Well, I tested out my MCC modified Mustang seat- did a 2 day trip down to Zanottis in Butler, PA (2 x 300 mile days).

I'm not pleased-I had a Corbin Stinger on my last bike, and never got a sore ass-I should have went with a Corbin from the start.

Just a slight thread hi-jack, but I will be posting an ad to see if anybody has a Corbin Dual Tour that would like to trade seats with me.

I think you must need one like this...........

Now that's a cool seat!!! I'd love one, except carrying handguns not allowed in Canada
