The Nightster appears to have the same stock seat as the Low models. I know when I changed from my stock solo seat, to the SideKick Custom from HD, it moved me back at least 2 inches.
I was just comparing your signature pic with mine. Your solo seat looks to be further forward than my seat.

Thx OC HOG. I'm looking forward to what you think about 'em.

KAHAONE, I'll check out what Harley offers as well. That'll be cool if they let me throw 'em on my bike to see how they feel.

Does the Brawler seat move u back as well?

I've met Chuck at C&C and have seen his seats. Great quality. I would highly recommend. I will be custom making one once I get the funds squared up.

Got caught up watching the damn football games this weekend and didn't get out. We've got weather in the 80's this week and I sat inside and watched football all weekend and then...my damn Chargers and Giants BOTH lost!!! I'm so pissed I missed riding and in turn, didn't get over to the C&C shop. I'll go this week(end) though. I need a new seat. This damn stock seat is KILLING me on long rides!

Corbin Hollywood Solo moves you back and is much more comfortable than stock. I did have a few problems with fit.
