Default Street Bob stock seat- problem fixed

I'm lucky to have a BEAUTIFUL 2012 Street Bob I purchased from the Harley dealer in Deltona, FL. Great deal, and bike shipped for free. Couldn't be happier for upgrading from a sportster. What a ride!

The only issue I have had is the stock seat. It's wide enough, soft enough and looks good enough for me for now. But I seem to feel as if I'm sitting on the very back edge of it (I'm not a tall guy 5'10" and the bike has stock mids and when accelerating I feel as if I'm going to slide off the back of it.

One day while in a rush I ended up with my wallet and my iPhone both on each of my pants back pockets (I usually put all my stuff in my fork bag) Right away, I felt the sides of my *** supported by the wallet and the iPhone, LOL. To the extent that I was not feeling as if I am slipping off the seat, especially when accelerating. I know it sounds stupid, but it works.

I had been looking for a diff solo seat, but I think I found a cheaper solution. If you have been feeling like you are sliding off the back of your FXDB, give this a try.

"Alright. Take out all your change and put it in your left-hand pocket. C'mon, do it, Roy. Alright now, tie your left shoe in a double knot. Right now, Roy, do it. Turn your hat around backwards. Turn your hat around. Do it, Roy. Now take this tee and stick it behind your left ear." Hey if it works

If it like most Dyna seats it is rather rounded instead of being rather straight for support.
That does help but you may end up with a sore back or hip on longer rides.
