If you're looking for a low-profile solo seat I can recommend the LePera Outcast seat....here it is on my '13 RKC

I love the seat but i prefer very stiff seats. Most people say they aren’t for long distance but i have had many 1000 km days on it that I wouldn’t trade.
It does move you back and down a bit but again thats what i prefer.

For what it’s worth, I prefer the chrome versions over the black. I have the same bike and think it would be kind of weird to black out random parts since it’s the classic version.

I also have a Mustang Wide Tripper solo seat and while it looks nice, I can only make it about 150 miles at a time without having to stretch.

Wilkommen!

If you are looking for a firm seat, I think most people would agree that the Corbin seats will fit your needs. The seats are generally considered some of the best around and are highly customizable - http://www.corbin.com/harley/

You might also consider C&C - https://www.ccseats.com/harley.html

There are many more “after market” seat manufacturers that you can check out through sites like JP Cycles.

Viel Glück und Ich wünsche Ihnen eine gute Fahrt!
