SEAT SELECTION, A PAIN IN THE ARSE . . . . NEVER REALLY INTENDED TO CHANGE THE CRACK MAGNET ON THE PENIS MOSHEEN, BUT, TO BE HONEST, THE ORIGINAL EFFORT IS PRETTY UNCOMFORTABLE AFTER ABOUT THE 300 KLMS MARK . . . . IT WAS ALSO ONE OF THE WEAKEST PIECES OF DESIGN ON THE BIKE, A TOTAL BLOODY AFTERTHOUGHT CONCIEVED BY THE JANITORIAL STAFF AT HARLEY H.Q . . . . PUT A STOCK MUSTANG 'TRIPPER' ON THIS ARVO.

I WAS NEVER GONNA FIT ONE OF THOSE GUMBY BICYCLE TYPE SADDLES, FUCKING RIDICULOUS, IT IS WHAT IS, I'M NOT GOING TO RETRO FIT IT AS THOUGH IT'S A GENNY/SHOVEL, I SURE AS HELL WASN'T GOING TO SPEND COIN ON A CUSTOM SEAT FOR A PRETTY STOCK BIKE, BUT I NEEDED TO LOSE THE INEFFECTUAL ORIGINAL ITEM . . . . SO THE 'MUSTANG' GOT THE NOD AHEAD OF THE USUAL STIFFS LIKE LE PERA, CORBIN, BILTWELL AND EVEN THE FRANKLY GROTESQUE RANGE FROM THE GENERALLY TALENTED MASTER SANDS, I WANTED SOMETHING TO KEEP MY LARD-ARSE FROM SLIDING SLOWLY OFF THE BACK IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET BLOOD CIRCULATING IN MY CHEEKS ON LONGER HAULS WHEN THE TANK STILL HAS 100 KLMS RANGE LEFT . . . . ANYHOO, THAT'S THE LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT, I DON'T MIND IT YET IT'S NOT FULLY GIVING ME THE HORN, QUITE LIKE THE SEMI CAFE HUMP, THOUGHT OF HAVING THE SAME TRIMMER I'VE USED THE PAST TWENTY YEARS SHAVE THE PROFILE DOWN A POOFTEENTH, DON'T LIKE THE WAY THE NOSE SITS SHY OF THE END OF THE TANK, AS I SAID, JUST NOT SURE . . . . I'LL KEEP EVALUATING IT I GUESS.

  1. I can't speak to the Sporty version, but I put Mustangs on every one of my dressers and never regretted the 100% comfort improvement. I have two crushed discs in my lower spine but I put over 900 miles on my Glide in a 24 hour period once. My FL model was fitted with a removable back rest, very "geezer glide" but comfy for the loooong haul.
