Default What seat to put be back further?

2014 street bob. HD foot boards. The current seat is a HD 2 up. Based on my experiences thus far, and a friends opinion, I need more leg room. What are the seats that you all have experience with? I checked on mustangs website, and they only have one seat in the category of being further back. I do not know any major seat brands as I come from a street bike background.

Thanks

C&C Fastback will do the trick.

I have a Corbin Hollywood, it puts me further back than my mustang and keeps me higher too.

If you want to consider keeping the stock seat, you have it modify by Mean City Cycles. I had used them on three seats in the past. www.meancitycycles.com

One of the LePera "Daddy Long Legs" seats. I had the Daytona which was a very nice seat, built very well and looked good. Here's a pic of the bike with it on.
It was a bit narrow for longer rides, and put me back enough that I really needed to do something with the handle bars but the leg position was great.
They also have the Maverick available in DDL form which is more of a touring seat. I'm not thrilled by the look of that one.

I second a LaPera. Ive had multiple seats on my bike, and that one stretched me back the farthest.

Put some mini apes on it. That's what it took to fully fit my 6-2 self.
Throttle cables need changed, wires and clutch cable will work.
