Default Seat for FatBoy Suggestions?

I am a rather short fellow 5'4 and ride a Fat Boy. I would rather have a seat that still looks good on the Fat Boy but lets me sit a little lower to the ground. Any Suggestions?[sm=feedback.gif]

the badlander seat will sit you lower and push you forward..............the low profile seat will sit you lower but further back..........these are both HD seats

If your wanting comfort and a lower ride, good luck, I mean sometimes it's hard to find, but a sundowner will put you a little lower, I had one on my Heritage, better than the stock seat no dout, you might want to look into a Saddleman or a Mustang for comfort though.

I have a stock seat & pillon and replaced it with the Lepera solo seat with gel. It is very confortable and the gel makes all the difference. I'm 6' and 245 but have short legs 31" inseam so it gets me to the ground flat footed which is where I want to be. It's not your height, but your inseam that makes the difference. Good luck I'm sure the other reccomendations are good also.[sm=bounceybounce.gif]By the way, it sure looks good on the bike.See below.

A Corbin Close Gunfighter, will lower you and move you forward also, that's what I've got on my Fatboy.
