As I've read before and experienced for myself, the stock seat on the M50 sucks. After an hour, I have to get up and walk around. Needless to say this upsets the other people I ride with so I figured I'd break down and invest in a new seat. I'd like a Mustang, because those seem to be rated the highest, but I can't seem to find one made for an '05 M50. So I have been comparing the Saddlemen Explorer and the Corbin two-up touring. I was wondering if anyone out there had used either of these on their bikes and could let me know what they think of them. Also, I can't find the dimensions for the Saddlemen. I am a pretty big guy and don't want a seat pan made for someone who weighs 100 lbs. If anyone has dimensions for the Saddlemen I'd appreciate those too.
