Does anyone have any advice on an aftermarket seat for a Softail Slim that will move me forward about 2 inches?
I am 5'3" and I can put my feet flat on the ground but cannot reach the forward controls. I need a seat that will move me forward not down.
Any help would be appreciated.

 

How about the Harley Reach Seat?

Hello. Not sure of your Slim year, but I'm 5'6" and have a 2019 Slim. The "Kickflip" style seat will push you around 2" forward. I love LaPera seats and have a Cherokee 2up and Bare Bones solo. The Cherokee is similar to the Kickflip giving you that higher back rest and can tell you that it will push you around 2". I know other companies make this style of seat. LaPera seats aren't cheap, but can vouch for high quality and look amazing.

Mustang seats do a wide tripper seat that could work.

 

Le Pera makes a nice reduced reach seat too.

 

You're going to chase seat after seat. Ask me how I know. What you need to realize is exactly what you want. Then contact MCC. They will custom build you a seat off your OEM platform, cut, shape, lower, move forward, whatever you want. I can assure you, when they're done. You'll thank me.

 

local auto upholstery...go talk to them, they have foam and materials to recover, most cases...not as costly as NAMED manufactures.
