I want to upgrade the stock seat on my bike. What is the best way to go? I need a good rear seat for the wife.:patriot:

Before investing hundreds in a Mustang, Ultimate, or other high dollar solution, try the BadX mod. I wish that I had... :(

My passenger seat, and driver's seat is at BadX's right now.
I am getting the double decker driver's seat, and the double decker WIDE passenger pillion, with new covers, and it's going to be $340 plus shipping. Cost me $23.00 to ship there, not sure how much to get back, but for AROUND $400, (this includes the shipping AND new covers...the covers are an option I didn't have to go with), it should be better than a Mustang, which costs over $600.
Oh, and one more thing, Allen, the owner has OUTSTANDING customer service!!!
I prefer to do business, when possible, on a local level, but the guy who does gel inserts here in the Black Hills doesn't return calls, seldom even answers his phone, so I went with Allen.

Yes This is my second bike and before I even took it out, I ordered a new Mustang saddle for me and the wife.

Talk to my friend Bad-X. I rode down to his place and watched him work on the seat of my 1300R. He does great work. The ride back was much better than the ride there.

never tried the bad x but know a few people with them and they like them. but i bought the mustang for mine. the difference was unbelievable! the back seat for the wife is almost better than the seat up front. if you buy a mustang you wont be sorry.

Went with Ultimates. Flat out best money I've ever spent.

I went with Ultimate seats also. I've done 1000 miles straight, only stopping for fuel. No pain or aching at all. Best seat I've had, best money I've spent.

Ultimate seat, $550.00,
670 miles, $65.16 in gas,
17 hours in the saddle in 2 days, no butt burn - priceless.

Mustang with pillion seat on my 05 'R.

Now . . . whenever I ask my wife about her needing a new rear seat she smacks me.:spank:

I've never rode anything as good as a Mustang, My wife agrees. Of course there not for everyone. But I'll be putting one on my HD and won't give a second thought to spending $375.00 on it. After all no matter how nice the bike is or what you spend for chrome. If you can't sit on it and ride in comfort, What's the reason for having the bike at all. GG :D

The "Ultimate Seat" is the ultimate seat. You can't find a better seat at any price.

I bought a Saddlemen seat and I absolutely love it! Very comfortable for the Passenger as well.

Best seat in town Ultimate next Mustang after that Jack @ JJ upholstery 801-955-4433. Best prices I've seen almost half of what Bad X is and probably better quality.
