Thumbs up Tallboy seat on a Deluxe, anyone have one?

I'm not really crazy about a tallboy seat, but if I saw one actually on a deluxe I could get a better perspective..

Default Seat

I just purchased a new seat for my Deluxe from ccseats.com. The seat is real comfortable and moves you back away from the tank about 2 inches which is what I was looking for.
One other thing that I wanted was a seat that cover's the stock seat mounting bolts in the rear fender which this seat does it really looks clean. I paid $175 for my seat its ostritch skin but they have vinyl & leather......

Check out the site as I have not taken any pic's of my bike with the new seat.

They also have a ebay store C&Cseat...... This company is local to me so I went to the showroom they have a big selection and great customer service with a one year warranty on all seats.

If you need more info or can not find the site PM me. -Mike-

Cluts here you go. Heres a couple of pics of my Deluxe a couple of years ago. I'm a tall rider and never felt quite right on the bike so I bought the seat. I do have to say it was very comfortable and riding position was quite good however...the look made me want to hurl!!! I have a Fat boy seat as well as a Springer seat and both give me a great ride.
Hope this helps,

wow, that TallBoy seat looks like a baby seal on that bike LOL. My dealer wanted me to try one out on my FatBoy (I'm 6'5") and I put it on and took it off just as fast. Although it did move me back it also moved me up. Made me feel like I was sitting on top of the bike and not in the bike, which is how I prefer.

I have a tallboy seat that I put on my Train, with the HD sissy bar, when the wife wants to ride. It is comfortable for her, but I hate it!! Like dugan said, it makes me feel like I am sitting on top of the bike. It also looks like s**t to me.
