Seat recommendation for taller guy?
I recently bought a beautiful Dyna as my first motorcycle! Finally joining the Harley crowd!
I love the seat that I have now (comfy for shorter rides), but what's a seat that you all would recommend for me? I'm 6'0" (have forward controls), but I'd like to move back just a hair in the seat, and maybe even get a little back support. I'd like a 1-up seat and don't want the back support to look like a freakin' Lazy Boy, but something that may come up a bit higher (or even seating me a tad lower to create the higher back) than my current one, for when I start doing longer rides. Your thoughts? Thanks guys! Here are a few pics to let you see what I've got now. (MANY more mods to come later, haha :) ) https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...48091671_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...25613464_n.jpg |
I've got the C&C sport tour and I really like the back support it provides. You can also get them with a removable rider back rest. I'm eyeing the fastback model for when I'm riding solo. Oh and I'm pushing 6'4"

And welcome to the Harley life!

My Switchback is my first HD too. Going to a local guy here in San Antonio, he's going to modify my seat, add foam, move me back a hair and give me a backrest of sorts. quoted me $200.
Compared with an aftermarket seat, it's a steal. |
I have my stock seat (exactly like yours) I do not like the position with it. I have a corbin solo. (the one in my pic) And I have a Badlander on the way, I will let you know how the position is with it when I get it. Should put me 1 to 2 inches back from stock the way it looks. My corbin solo puts me 2" back, but there is no back support. btw I am 6'2".

Laperra Barebones will get you back in the seat.
