Looking for some opinions on touring solo seats for a tall rider 6'5". Ive done a little research on the Mustang vintage solo and the Danny Grey Big solo. I need to be moved back and up.. give me some ideas.

 

Have you considered a police seat?

 

I had an upholsterer add three inches of foam and fabricate a new cover for a bike. It cost $150. He mostly does boat seats and such, but the end result has been great.

My inseam is 37 inches.

You might consider simply having your seat remade to your specs.

 

This! Or some variation of the classic "tractor" seat. If my legs were longer, that's what I'd be riding.

 

I've got the po lease seat, and in my opinion, it's the best thing that there is.

It puts your *** about where it should be on the bike. If you needed to, you could drill some holes, or space it up a little, to move up and/or back.

I really was not real happy with the stock seating position on my road king, but the police seat makes the bike just about what I wanted.

 

Take a look at a Russell Day Long Solo Seat. They can move you back and up. You will be able to ride long distances with never any discomfort. I have owned a lot of bikes and the first thing I did to every one of them is purchase a Russell Seat. Do yourself a favor and research this seat.

 

The older air shock police solo seat from the Evo days had a built in adjustment for height and fore/aft. It was the best seat Harley ever made.


The newer police seats, not so much, but they are nice and wide. I too would look at having Russell build one to your specs. I have the Harley solo and would sure like it 2 inches higher and further back and I'm only 5'11".
