Default New C&C Solo for 09 RG
Got my new C&C Solo w/ backrest for my Glide today. This is my 3rd C&C, I love the way they fit and feel. I'll keep my Mustang for 2 up and trips but the C&C is tops for every day.

Only got a short ride in this evening, will go for a long ride Saturday, but I know the comfort from past experience and this one is no different! Thanks Chuck!

I like those lowers also. I wish I had known about the Hogg Chops before I bought the HD ones. The HD's are killing me with the heat here in Texas.

Looks great. Hows the backrest? Does it push you forward like the HD backrest? Is it adjustable? Ive been looking for a seat w/backrest but dont want to be pushed forward. At 6'5' I need all the room I can get.

C&C offers by far the best adjustment range on backrests. It adjusts way back if needed, and it's a COMFY feel, not a "jab you in the back" feel like HD has.

Nice solo seat. If you have a backrest mount installed for the 2-up seat, can you still use the solo seat backrest or does that require a different do-hickey installed under the seat? Also, is the leather piece behind the seat optional or must it be used to secure the seat? I noticed it uses the back screw hole for the stock seat.

Nice seat. Did you use the bib to hide any 2-up seat scuffs? Mine was scuffed at 100 miles.
