helijamal · Jan 31st, 2010, 04:12 PM

I know that everyones tastes are different but looking for input on which seat gives the most comfort for my girlfriend on our 2006 heritage soft tail. Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,
Jamie

Big question a lot depends on size of the person legs ect.
If person has short legs a wide seat can be hard to live with no madder how well it fit the tail.
only way to know is sit on them

Mustang makes a very comfy seat, do a search at the top of the page.

I bought the touring passenger pillion for my wife and she loves it. Made a big difference. Now we can ride 300 miles and she has no problems.

My wife is very comfy on her 750 Honda.

Thanks to all who have posted so far. I have read up on the mustang seat and it looks like that will be the seat we get before riding season begins. As far as her riding her own, i am perfectly content to have her on the back until she is ready to venture out on her own(if that ever happens).

Passenger comfort IF you want to leave the seat "stock" is to add Sheepskin Gel Pad, if comfort is close and she needs about 3/4" Height and it protects the finish of the seat as well. Check out

It quickly attaches and removes via vinyl coated sheet metal hooks and nylon/velcro straps...!
