As a co-founder of CruiserCustomizing I have owned a lot of bikes with different after market seats, including Mustang. This seat sits you a little lower and a little further back, with more of a step to support your lower back. The seat is a bit firmer than I expected, but since it sits you lower I guess that's to be expected to keep you from feeling the seat pan. It certainly looks better than the stock seat, and I was hoping to sit lower to get more flat footed which would help when backing up this big heavy bike. It helped a little, but not much. Maybe I need boots with thicker soles? Installation was also a bear, needed my roommates help to get everything to line up properly. Should it take 30 minutes and lots of cursing to simply bolt a seat in place? I don't think so!
