i agree with ^^^^^^ bought a stock low seat and the wife wouldn't get back on after one short ride, bought a C & C sport tour and we're both happy

LOL No long two up rides for sure on them seats. She likes two up look with her sissy bar and comes in handy for two up short ride if needed. Not familiar with CC did some looking at site, nice seats. Sounds like they can lower you and inch. I would probably try Mean City Cycles for 100 bucks than shell out $400 + for new seat to get an inch lower. Not that important at this point. She is flat footed just want little more leverage. Going to try newer stock seat, if not enough, I'll send it in to MCC. They can't do much for lowering on 2010 seats due to the pan.

MCC told me seats newer than 2010 will set you lower than 2010's stock seats. That's what I'm trying to find out.
