Mustang vs Corbin Seat

Recently purchased a 2012 Voyager and the only thing I do not like about it is the seat. I find that it pushes me forward.

I am trying to decide between the Mustang and the Corbin seat for comfort also one that will allow me to have feet flat on the ground. I find the bike a little tall with the stock seat. I had a Victory Vision and when seated on it, my feet were flat on the ground.

Any feedback on either seat is greatly appreciated.

mbarr10 would be the guy to answer this. He has a Vaquero and I believe he has had both those seats on his.
I have a Russel day-long on mine. it was made to raise me up and move me back. But I'm tall with long legs. They are expensive but very comfortable. But the shorter guys have a issue with touching the ground.

A forum member was selling lowering links. I am not sure if he still does.

Is there someone near you that works on motorcycle seats ?

They may be able to reshape the stock seat to your needs cheaper than a replacement seat that might not work for you.

Corbin / Mustand comparison

I have both a Corbin and a Mustang seat for my Vaquero. The Mustang gives all day comfort but does push you up against the tank and gives a "cramped" feeling. The Corbin is the most comfortable and sits you back enough so your not touching the tank BUT after about 3-4 hours it starts to hurt my butt, The foam is very hard. The Corbin is lower than the Mustang and by far better looking. On a long trip or multiple days of riding I'll use the Mustang, On shorter or one day rides I use the Corbin.
