Default Please help with wife's seat and pipes

My wife bought a street bob, andit is too tall by an inch(she is 5'5"). She also wanted forward controls so I put them on for her, but she is having trouble with her legs cramping because she has to hold them too straight. can anyone recommend a seat that will push her forward an inch while letting her closer to the ground.Also, the dealership I talked to saiddrag pipes can't be added(evenonce the bike is broke in)unless the computer is reprogrammed, but I was under the impression that youdon't need a programmer unless youmodify both intake and exhaust. thanks

Thanks for the help. Those seats look like they would be great seats except for the one fact I forgot to tell you guys. She wants to stay with a solo seat if at all possible. Anymore suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

I would contact Corbin and have them make a Hollywood Solo for her in up front design, There very low and still very Comfortable on long hauls. The mustang up front seat will be cheaper but maybe not as low.They are wider towards the tank which keeps your legs apart wider. They also will custom fit. There both great seats.. Also get her a set of 11" progressives that will help lower the rear... I have the reg Corbin Hollywood Solo and 11" Progressives and my seat height is about 241/2" when sitting on the bike but I'm 181lbs.. Good Luck
