Hey HOGBOB, that C&C seat looks great! Does it mount to the frame or to the standard mounts at the rear of the seat? Was it custom made or one of their stock saddles? Been looking for a 200 mile + per day seat that looks good and is confortable for my '05 Lux. More info and pics please! Thanks!

Mjohnston66,
Mine is the standard solo for a Deluxe. Even though I have an 07', I ordered the seat for the 08's on. The only difference is the 05' to 07' seats have side frame mounting screws, and the 08' and on seat does not. Mine has a bracket that mounts to the two studs that hold the stock seat. The seat then has a single tab and chrome acorn nut to mount to the bracket. It's a clean look. BTW gel is always good................

Ronyd....Did this change give you any additional lower back support? I like my Deluxe seat but wish it had more back support. Thanks!
check out MeanCityCycles. They modified my stock Deluxe seat. Carved it out and put memory foam. For $140, well worth it. It's like having a new seat. I now really sit in it, with backing support. Maybe lowered me an inch. Real comfortable. That's all you need.
If you like closely at my pic, you can see the bucket/backing that is now in the seat after the mod.
