Default Another C&C Seat Thread

Question, Chuck at C&C just designed a new close solo which I ordered today...

Its a 16 inch seat to the lumbar with a more narrow front section... On the stock seat I am "almost" flat footed...

He said at my height (5'8) I could stick with regular solo - but I think being a bit more upright is what I need to cure the shoulder pain....

Anyway, anyone my height with the standard solo on a street glide?

I have until monday to change my order....

Thanks

5-7" here on a regular solo. No shoulder pain and plenty of reach to the floor.

5'9" with a 29" inseam. I have the C&C solo on two Road Kings. Been using one for over two years. I'm flat footed on stops with no shoulder / back pain. C&C does outstanding work.
