Mustang Super Touring Comfort for H-D Touring motorcycles

Mustang’s new one-piece “Super” touring design provides the rider and passenger with the most comfortable seat possible on 2008-10 FL models. Not only does the driver sit in a deeply pocketed, 19” wide front bucket, but Mustang’s new Super Touring seat moves the driver 1.75” further back than the stock seat. The seat is also lower than stock so that the rider can plant his feet firmly on the ground.
Never forgetting the passenger, Mustang provides a full 14” wide seat, which is fully supported by Mustang’s unique internal support wings that eliminate any sagging at the edges. More passenger comfort means fewer passenger complaints.
Available plain or with studs (either chrome or chrome with black pearl centers), the Super touring seat is available with or without a fully adjustable driver backrest that folds flat for ease of getting on the motorcycle and removes easily without tools.
Mustang’s One-Piece Super Touring seat with chrome studs and a Driver Backrest is $719. A matching Wrap-Around Passenger Backrest with thicker, extended arms for only $279 completes the custom looking passenger comfort.
The Mustang story: Mustang Seats was started in 1980 by Al Simmons, an engineer and motorcycle rider, who has been in the motorcycle industry for over 30 years. Under his leadership, Mustang has grown from a small operation making just a dozen seats a day to being one of the worldwide leaders in motorcycle seat production.
Al traveled to every state and listened to thousands of motorcycle riders needs. This, complemented by his years of riding experience, formed the basis of his unique understanding of rider’s needs and the essentials of seat design to address those needs.
Mustang seats are designed for all-day riding comfort for both the rider and the passenger, and Mustang seats are hand-made in the United States, another bonus if anything goes wrong with the seat or replacement parts are needed. A call can be placed within the U.S and parts shipped quickly.
The seat cover looks like leather. The exterior is made of the highest quality expanded vinyl available, but the durability and resistance to the elements that exceed original equipment standards for motorcycle seats. It does not fade, resists all weather conditions better than other materials, and requires practically no maintenance. Small braided trim adorns the seat nose and along the passenger backrest to provide a clean, attractive, finished appearance.
The foam for each seat is custom-made by Mustang. The most important component of comfort is the seat foam; both the quality of the foam and its design. Mustang has over 25 years experience in compounding the right chemical mix to create the best-controlled density polyurethane foam for comfort. The foam has a density of approximately four pounds per cubic foot, depending on the size and thickness of the seat, which allows for hours of enjoyable ride time.
Celebrating their 30th anniversary this year, Mustang continues to proudly handcraft all their seats in the USA.
