Default Moving seat back?
2010 Superglide with stock solo seat.

I end up sitting on the back ridge of the seat most of the time, if I'm in "proper" seating position, I feel like I'm pressed onto the tank. I wanna stay with a solo seat.

What are my options for adjusting or getting another seat that will give me a bit more "room"? I ride with mids and plan on keeping them.

You can add some riding pegs up front so you stretch out when you need too!

If your looking to stay with a solo and want to sit back as far as possible go with a Lepera barebones seat.

Yeah the barebones is a sick seat...I had mine for all of 3 days before someone...probably a boarder jumper jacked it off my bike in the WalMart parking lot...very comfortable ride home..

Mustang solo tripper or day tripper. They are comfortable and they move you back a couple inches.

You could also send your stock seat to Allen over at Mean City Cycles and have it reshaped and/or add in some better foam.

Mustang vintage solo sets back much further than stock street bob solo (not sure if yours is the same).
