Default Seat Question
I have a 2012 street bob, and am looking for a seat that will move me back. I am fairly tall (6' 1"), and the extra length would be nice. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The mustang solo puts me back at least an inch compared to the SB seat I have and is kept on a shelf.

If you like the seat then take it to someone who knows and have if cut to fit. Add a little memory foam and enjoy the ride. This place does a great job.
