I've got the Mustang 2 piece vintage touring. I love having the option of just a solo seat and the wife is pretty happy with the passenger seat. It's considerably wider than the stock and many aftermarket offerings. It also has a good solid base which really makes a difference.

I'm well past the point were looks are more important than functionality. After about 50 miles I'm very happy to have my "ugly" seat. And all in all I don't think my bike looks to awful! LOL

That's what makes buying seats so difficult. To me the stock seat was a torture device! I couldn't get 50 miles without my back hurting and my butt getting numb. the base plate is way to flexible and provides very little support for the seat. Corbins are another one. People either love them or hate them. Very firm and unyielding but I have had a couple and found them to be pretty comfortable as the miles pile up. Unfortunately no one yet make a seat that fits everyone and the sad part is it's so costly to find out you don't like it.

I also have the Corbin Dual Touring seat. I personally have put on 400+ miles in a day on the stock seat without any trouble. But my girlfriend couldn't go for more than a half an hour without complaining. Now with the Corbin, we put on 500 miles the first weekend in June and she never said a word! Definitely worth the money.
I knew the people on this forum would come through. Now I just have to do some pricing. Thanks a bunch. When I get back into country in two days I will see about ordering something for my stryker. I'm torn right now between seat and BW fairing.

For all your pricing... shoot Jordan of Babbitts online an email @ [email protected]
He is a stryker owner and the owner of a dealership in MI. I use him for almost all my parts - he will really hook you up on pricing... Plus he's just an all around great guy to deal with.
Tell em Jeff sent ya from the Stryker forum.

Bought that same seat, but unfortunately i have the cobra backrest and the passenger pillion will not work with the cobra backrest. I now have the one piece parts unlimited predator seat with flame stitching . Wife likes it better, but to be honest i still miss the saddlemen i had on another bike. Too bad saddlemen doesnt make one for oursMy wife really likes the Wide Pillion from Parts Unlimited.
Here is a pic... plus there are a couple more in my garage...

Hope this link works http://www.saddlemen.com/products/k2mart/seats/explorer-g-tech/explorer-g-tech.html.
Saddlemen doesnt specifically list it. Wonder if that listing is an error.
