Time for a new seat for the Vaquero
I would really like to find a new or near new seat for my 2017 Vaquero. I have the stock seat and the Gel touring already and neither one are real great. I am thinking a Corbin or a Mustang. I know RDL is many peoples favorite and I live less than 30 miles from their shop but I just think I want something a little better looking than the dual tractor seat on the Vaquero. If anyone is selling their seat let me know what you have!!!

I actually would like one that looks nice. I have had 3 russel day long seats. All were comfortable, all looked like farm equipment!!!! I am playing around on Corbins site now and am thinking I will just order one of the young guns for a daily rider and find something else for long rides with the wife. Actually I may just buy her a Vulcan S and forget the two up seat!!!

So I decided to try another approach and added a sheepskin buttpad from alaska leather to the Kawasaki Gel touring seat. This has been a major improvement. Still considering another seat but adding the sheapskin pad increased my "comfortable" riding time to about two hours before I need a break. For my needs currently that will be good enough.

Sheepskin good! Do like the looks of the Young Guns from Corbin. Also like thier options for custom beading and piping...
Having two seats, one for special long trips and the other for most other trips is a good approach. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

I have the Corbin Dual Tour on my Nomad and the Mustang on the MeanStreak.
The Dual Tour is unbelievably comfortable, long trips are no problem. The Mustang is good, but not quite as good. I actually picked up a second Dual Tour when I saw one being sold at a very reasonable price.
