Default Sundowner Again

I'm thinking about putting a Sundowner on my 06 Electa Glide Classic. I will be using the Road King style because I'm installing a chrome console kit like that come on the Street Glide and EG Screamin Eagle. My question is I'm 6' tall and was wonering if this seat will move me back any and set me any lower. Also what the passenger area like like better half rides with me at times and I dont need her complaining. Give me your opinions please.'

You will sit lower, more comfort for rider and passenger. Same reach to bars as my stock seat. Does it look good, you decide?

I would also like to do something like that with my ultra. Not crazy about the look of the deep bucket sundowner. But I do like the looks of the other sundowner. My problem is that
I have the CB hookup on my console. Have you thought about the road glide seat. I like the looks of that seat not sure how it would feel. I think it's very hard to order a seat without seeing it and sitting on it. Also concidered buying road glide seat and having gel put in it. Let us know how it works out for you and what you did.

My son and I put about 200 miles Sunday. I am about 5 foot 11 250 pounds plus and my sons about 180 pounds about 5 foot eight. We were very comfortable on the Sundowner.



The guy in the redshirt is my twin brother and the kid is my son.

I use a Tour Pac on my RK with the Sundowner with no problems. The passenger backrest pad tucks in behind the back of the seat.
