Im 6ft need to move back on bike and feet forward a little more, What seat would work best and I know I can move my floor boards out but I need up to. Bike is 98 so seats from 97 to 07 will work, What has worked for you guys. Thanks

I have a C & C solo and it moved me back a noticable amount. I'm sure their 2 up seats move you back as well. Call Chuck and talk to him, he's a great guy to talk to and he'll do whatever he can to accomodate you;

ditto on the C&C, i have the sport tour seat on my 04 flhtc and it moves me back and down. it looks very nice and very comfortable. It actually moves me back just a little more than I like but it is so comfortable I keep it. My wife does not like it tho as the rear portion is not as roomy as the Mustang touring seat I have.

Try a Tallboy seat from Harley it moves you back about 2 inches from stock seat.

I took my stock seat and sent it to Mean City Cycles to have them put better/more foam in and move it back. Very happy with the outcome so it is something to think about and I'm only 5'9..... I also had a corbin and it was as nice as anything else I have ever sat on. It was a solo so I don't know how a normal 1 piece would be.

In answer to the second part of your question about the floorboard problem. Try the Kurykyn floorboard kit. It moves the boards out 1 inch and up 1 inch.I'm over 6 foot and it works for me.
Good to hear the comments on the C and C seats as I was wondering about them.
This forum is a GREAT place for information.
