I have the C&C Wide Solo. Im 6'2" and heavy. I like it, Got the widest pillion for my wife. If I had to do it again I would get the backrest. Probably go 1 pice as well because the pillion and tour pack rarely come off anymore.
You would be really really close to my build. I'm dead set on a 2 piece... I think they just look better. Im thinking about having mine extended 1 inch so i can still have the option for a backrest. If you didn't have yours extended, do you ever wish you would have? Do you feel cramped with the original wide solo seat or could you go back another inch and still feel comfortable? Maybe even feel better?
Did you go with the wide solo or the original solo? My @$$ isn't necessarily skinny at 230 lbs. Lol
To tell you the truth I'm not sure exactly. I called and spoke with the guys from C&C, told them my stats and what I wanted and this is what I got. I'm guessing the wide solo.
I was going to get leather but C & C talked me into vinyl because of durability. My seat is six years old and still looks like new.
Nice bike!!! I'm digging the bars. Lol
I have 16 apes on mine but believe I'm going to knock down to a 14" (maybe). I'm still undecided... She's gonna look good with the c&c solo though! That Rd King seat has got to go!!!!
Got mine a few weeks ago. They had it stitched up in like 4 hours from the time of order. I really like the comfort level and looks of the squareback and the wife doesn't mind it, but when she found out theres a sport touring model with a bigger pad for her, she was a little pissed.
