Default Badlander on WG. Sitting position.Question?

Hello,

I read a lot of posts here about badlander. Some of you say Badlander is farther away from forward controls ,some of you closer compare to stock touring seat ? Can anybody advise what is the exact sitting position of badlander ?

thanks

I have one on my 06 Wide Glide. Sits me lower and further back from the controls. For me, the riding position is now perfect

Yes. The correct riding position on a badlander installed on a WG is sitting.[8D]

I have a vinyl and it looks and works just fine. It sits me farther back and lower then stock. If I'm riding for 100 or more miles I swap it out with mysundowner seat. The badlanderlooks greatbut for my back side it's not meant for long stints.

I too have the vinyl. I chose this one as it would be easier to maintain. The leather may breathe under your butt better but it also stays wet longer after a good rain. Not sure if the riding position is different between the two, I would doubt it.
