got one on 09 RG and 06 SG sits you back about inch and lower -- the 09 seat required very little break in time -- they also changed the leather they use to Mecedes Benz type leather.

You don't say which model that seat is and I don't have a catalog.

I can tell you that my wife has a Corbin Classic Solor Close Reach on her 09 Street Glide. She also had them shave the nose just a bit. It moved her forward just a bit (maybe an inch or two) and just a bit lower.

I have a 10 Street Glide (same frame as the 09) and I have the standard Corbin Classic Solo. It moves me back just a bit and a bit lower than the stock seat.

We're both very happy with them.....we had Corbin on our previous bikes.

yes it lowered the seat height about 3/4 inch--the 09 and later seats are much wider than previous versions -- you can get a close version that moves you an inch closer to the bars
