Default FLHX Pics with aftermarket seat

In my opinion the FLHX stock seat is absolutely horrible. A new seat is at the top of my list of upgrades. Please post pics of you FLHX wth aftermarket seat. Also please mention the seat brand/model, your height and weight and opinion of the seat.

Thanks.

Corbin makes the best seat on the market in my opinion....

Here's a Corbin Classic Solo Close Reach heated seat on Terrie's Street Glide, it has custom flame stitch pattern stitched with two spools of thread at the same time (double stitched).....

I had a Corbin on my 2005 FXDi and really liked it. After 20,000 miles it was very comfortable.

How did you secure the bag on your FLHX? I would like a solo seat but was thinking I might have to go with a dual touring and a luggage rack so I could attach a TBag to carry more gear on long trips.

i personally think the streetglide seat is one of the most comfy seats on a stock harley, while still being pretty stylish. i hate the big *** seats on flht models.

i put tons of miles on my flhx seat on my flhp road king, no complaints at all.

but everybody has opinions,

The Sundowner is real comfy, puts you down and back a couple inches. Looks a lot like the stock one if you get the one made for the Streetglide. I'll try to find a pic.
