if you want comfort and long distance riding :Look no further than the cop seat.
As far as posin and looking kewl I have the Corbin solo
As a matter of fact I have 100k miles in that seat and 5 more Corbins for other bikes I have.... did I mention I have a lot of seats ??? at least a dozen anyway

Mustang never fit me well, I always thought they were too soft (cushy).
Soft seats start hurting on long rides , to me anyway

Never had the plea$ure of a DG seat

Hey like they say , there's one for everyone out there

Funny you said that - I was thinking about a cop seat last night. Do you know what is involved with that? - bolt on brackets, or is it an entirely different setup? Where would you get a cop seat?

Thanks

Just an update. I sent C&C and DG emails early last week. Both companies got back to me that day asking a few questions. I answered both. One company got back to me, and asked a ton more questions. The other company never responded. After numerous emails and phone conversations with company #1, I ordered their seat. Granted, I was not ordering an expensive seat - as basic as they come actually, but I was treated like an old friend. I can't wait for delivery, as my next step will be picking out a new windscreen. BTW, company #2 still hasn't gotten back to me.

PS - THEY REALLY HATE IT when you forget to mention you are a forum member, and then call up a week later asking for a refund for your forum discount. I was asked to spread the word that UNLESS YOU ASK FOR THE 10% DISCOUNT AT TIME OF ORDER, THEY WILL NO LONGER GIVE A POST ORDER DISCOUNT. Can't say I blame them.

PPS - I will post pic upon delivery of new seat.

Thanks for all your help, guys.

Rogue

I was running a Lepera Villian saddle and liked it so well that I bought the Solo version when I got my solo mounted tour pack. Nice seat, very comfortable. Find it here: http://lepera.com/seat_pgs/v3_Tourin...l.php?SEATID=4

Yeah - nice seat. I saw that on the site, only they don't make 'em for my "old" bike. Jeez, I just bought the thing in '05, and already it's an antique.

C&C comes through. Dave and Chuck are #1 in customer service. Top quality seat - very happy with it.

Now I have to figure out how to take the blemishes off the paint where the stock seat was (last pix)

Just their standard solo seat for an 05 RG, in smooth vinyl.
