Default Seat with more leg room????
I have a 2008 Low Rider. I need a bit more leg room. Which seats will put me further back than the stock seat?

Thanks,

Gerry

At one time, I had a Low Rider seat on my 06 Super Glide. Too far forward for me. I now have a 2007 FXDC stock seat and it moved me back, maybe as much as a couple inches. I really like the riding position now. I am 6'2" with a 34" inseam.I think thereis one of these FXDC seats in the classifieds now for $110.00.

Heck, I've got a new (2008 & less than 300 miles) stock FXDC (2up) seat I'll sell you if you are interested...

I have to agree. I got the exact same seat and it moved me way back over the stock solo seat.

I run a HD badlander on mine sometimes. Moves ya back and down, the position is comfortable but the padding is thin, so long rides can get to your back after a few hours.

If yer lookin' for a solo, Mustang Vintage will move you back and up a little, Corbin Hollywood back and down as will LePera and C&C.
