got to get her a little lower
 
Spent a week at Myrtle Beach and finally got antiquated with 2016 Street glide CVO I picked up last October. Love everything but Im only 5'8" 29" inseam and got to get her a little lower. Any recommendations from you guys that might have done this already.
Thanks Billy

i took my 2017 seat off to Alligator bob in northern Illinois he put gel pad in and lower seat almost 2 inches. I bet u can find a guy that does seats in New York there is a lot of room to lower the CVO seat if your set up is like mine. This way you have no suspension issues just a lower narrower seat.

Thanks for the response. I do have a friend that has a upholstery shop and was gonna ask him about it. I didnt think that there was that much room in the stock seat to get that much out of it. Ill give him a call. Thanks again.

It came already lowered from the factory. Might try a lower seat.

got the upholsterer the seat. There is about 2" of foam in the seat. They are going to shave about a inch off and see how it feel. If it isnt comfy I'll get jell pad for it. Also got the shop that works on the bikes for me to order a 1" lower tubes for the front and blocks for the rear. I'll let you all know how it goes. Thanks
