Default seat for 06 Help

Ive been looking for a new seat to replace the one on my FXDI. I went and looked at the sundowner deep bucket and it looks like a comfortable seat. I however dont like how wide it is. I didnt think that it would be that bad but it is it covers over the rear shocks pretty good. I measured the stock solo seat and it appears to be around 14 wide, wereas the sundowner is 16. My ? is what out there is just like the solo size wise but a 2 up. The stocker is a nice seat in my opinion.

Mister, I also have a SuperGlide.

For 2 up, I first bought the Leather BadLander. Rode it for a few weeks.
Didn't like it, uncomfortable for me. Gonna sell it.

Then I picked up an 06 Dyna LowRider seat. I like it.
If you click the full size button on my signature below, you can get a good look at it.

I like my solo seat fine as well.

I don't know how tall you are, but if 6'2" or over, the HD Tallboy is worth checking out. I replaced the solo on my FXDI with the Tallboy. Rode 300+ miles last Saturday..no butt problems.
