6' 215 lbs I have the HD forward controls and I am now looking for a comfortable solo seat to let me sit back 1".

I use to be 235. My doctor recommended eating more ***** and now I am down to 215.

Corbin Hollywood solo. Could not be more satisfied with this seat.

Thanks! I will have to look at the Corbin Hollywood Solo. Do you slide off the back of the seat when you get hard on the throttle?

No sliding at all with the corbin. You really set down and back in a nice bucket. I tried CC, Mustang and they are ok but this thing in my opinion is way way better and very comfortable. I can ride all day without any pain.

Thanks! I am looking for a seat that sits me more IN the saddle. I just checked out Corbin's Website. Nice seat and with a lock to boot

I'm 6'3" and 175lbs. The forward controls are nice, but when I stretch out my legs, the pegs hit me in the calf. Any leather seats that would give me more room, but still that bucket seat feel?

Also considering extended forward controls, but really need to replace the stock seat. When I crack the throttle, I usually end up half on the passenger pillion.

I used to be 6'4" 240lbs, but then I got sick and am now 5'6" and 480lbs

All kidding aside, I am 6'2 235 and fit my 07 suoerglide fine with forward controls and a bar that is higher and wider.
