I'm have a tough time finding a seat that is low profile, fits a 200MM rear fender and uses the two thumb srcew mount points instead of the single point farther up the fender. I have a Motherwell Solo rack mounted to the two seat posts so I need a seat mount that is compatible............any advice?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I really like the HD Brawler seat... at least looking at it... I don't have one yet.. I'm thinking of doing the HD custom seat program.. it's also leather.

If there isn't something off-the-shelf, you might need custom, probably someone local.

Wow those are beutifull bikes Motown Strag and Dr VTwin , what is that style ,I really like it?
My bike is 4 deg rake and 4 0ver tubes so although a wide seat would be comfortable I don't think it will look good , theres a few pics ,sorry for the grains but there from a shitty cell phone.
Ya not getting an air ride for a wile as far as I know so it has to look good as well as be comfortable.
I appreseat all the feedback , its looking like c&c or the Danny Grey right now.
I'll keep a scratchin and a lookin!

Have about a hundred miles on my C&C and so far like it better than the Corbin it replaced. Have had a couple of Danny Grays and like it better than those too. Fast service also.

Has anybody hinged springed seats??
That would be better for my back as my softail is dropped right dawn in the rear and some bumps feel like i'm driveing a hard tail.
Anybody has pics to share would be great,thanks all!!

I used chopper shox with a custom seat made by a local, love the ride. It does sit higher though, makes me wish I went higher on the apes.

c&c solo seat is the best I have ever had so far. looks great, follows the lines of the bike to a T and its very low pro. and comfortable to ride all day no problem on mine,for a good seat the price is great.
