I have found that better pants make a bigger difference than any seat. When I have the insulated liner in my Olympia Air Glide pants, I can ride fro MUCH longer in comfort than without.
I have posted this before, but I have tried the Corbin, the Sargent, and a custom Sargent. The two Sargent's have the place for tools under the seat - the Corbin does not. I found the Corbin to be the hardest and worst of the three. I've had Corbin's before too, and while the do break-in, I don't feel the change is drastic. If I were to go with a pre-fabricated, I would get the Sargent WorldSport. But for a similar price, you can send Sargent a stock seat pan, and get a custom. That's what I have now after going through the pre-fabricated ones, and it is by far the best.
Any other specifics of comparing the stock, Corbin, Sargent, and Sargent custom, feel free to ask. Been there - done that.....

I agree! I put a Sargent seat on my ST ~6,000 miles ago and don't
regret it one bit. Of course I also wear motorcycle shorts when I go
long distances. I have a few pair of these and am quite happy with them.
