I've had Mayer saddles on street bikes and they were nice, but I wouldn't want one for trail riding.
If you look at what Rick does on dualsports, you'll see that they have the molded seat portion but still retain the narrow off road style. When I get off road, I just slide forward out of the "road" part of the saddle onto the narrow part.

I don't have any experiance with any other brands, what I do know is I can ride in comfort and enjoy the bike far more than I did with the stock seat.

I bought shorts built to stop monkey butt. And when I went in the bike shop I asked for monkey butt shorts and got quite a laugh

My seat and the xpc look to be built the same way.

A sheepskin pad (google Alaskan Leather) or seat beads can improve comfort considerably and allow air circulation which helps prevent monkey butt. All for a lot less than a new seat.

Those didn't help me anywhere close to the new seat.

If you are interested in a more economical choice....mind you it will not be as comphy as a custom renzco, but I got a www.gutsracing.com high seat and a nice new cover for just over $100. Now you have to slap it together yourself, but it was easy.

Nice high seat looks good and way better than stock and cheap....besides I'm on the pegs mostly, no way I'm putting a $500 seat on my dirtbike.

Only pic handy.

I bought a corbin seat from someone on teh forum. It is Schwwwweeeeeeeet!. Can ride double with reasonable comfort. Pic is in the bad @*** thread.
I switch her out to stock when dirt riding..... since I ride pegs too and will not want to have others see me cry if I goon up the corbin.
