pics are a good idea to help us with the seating position.

Here are the pics. My wife took the pics of me on the bike, standing at the same place to that the angle was as identical as we could get it.
As you can see, the bucket of the seats are almost the same distance back. However, I can slide myself a little further back on the stock, while the shape of the sorrento prevents this. Like I said before, the sorrento is a nice seat and the lower back support feels nice, but I'm looking for a seat that lets me sit a little further back. The sorrento is back in the box, ready to ship to whoever wants to buy it.

I bought a Lepera for my softail once and it was the hardest seat I've ever had.
However I gotta buddy who has one for his S/G and he likes his.

Corbin's are hard too,and I will not go there again either.

Just sold the sorrento. No idea what to look at next. Maybe I should contact C&C for a custom seat.

Here are some pics of my c&c. It is modified to be about 2 inches forward. Works great for me at 5'5. Because of the new seat I have also ordered some highway pegs. C&C will modify to whatever you need, front or back or whatever you desire. Send me a pm with your email and I will forward the the pics chuck sent me when I was deciding what to order.
