Default Seat advice - 07 Fat Boy

My problem is Im 6' 2" and I seem to be sitting to upright when I ride. Id prefer to be able to lean back, stretch out a bit and of course be comfortable. Ive put on the Wild 1 Chubby RK II bars (part #W0518) and Ive recently put on the Mustang solo seat (part # 76408). I am more comfortable but still way to upright. I need a seat that lowers me and put be back a bit.....any ideas???? Thanks in advance.

I'm 6'5" and put a LePera BareBones Solo on my 07 FatBoy. It lowers me into the bike as well as sits me back. Not a long haul seat, but with the gel in it I can do 100-200 miles rides with no problems

I am 6'4" and I recently purchased a C&amp\\;C sport touring seat and I am very impressed thus far. Sits me down and back a bit. I also just ordered the Mark IVs so I should be able to stretch out now.

C&amp\\;C all the way... got the Solo and the Sport Tour (for two-up rides) and love them. I'm also 6'2" and they dropped me down just enough, yet with plenty of support.

I just got the C&C Sport Tour for when she wants to ride......jury is still out on it. Maybe I should have got the gel in it like I did in my LePera BareBones Solo
