Harley Tall Boy or Leather Low Profile
Help me out, the Harley Tall Boy or Leather Low Profile seats are in my budget range. I have read a fair amount of good on the Tall Boy and not a lot of info on the Leather Low Profile. I want to sit back and down, 6"2" and really feel cramped on my Electra Glide Ultra. Not crazy about the looks of the Tall Boy but looking for comfort over cool.

If I were to do it again I would take the stock seat and re-shape it to see if that would work. You're gonna buy a new one anyway.

I'm 6' 5" although I didn't really feel cramped on my Road King Classic. The seat was uncomfortable on rides over 100 miles.
Tried out the Tall Boy seat at the Harley Dealer. Didn't like how it raised the seat height.
Went with a Mustang seat. Yes, It is more money, but I think it was worth it.
It claims to move you back about 1.75" and lowered the seat height about a half a inch. Was much more comfortable on the longer rides.
With the Mustang seat on my Road KIng, it feels like sitting on a Heritage Softail Classic. Kind of that more in than on feeling, that the Heritage gives you.

I have the HD Tall Boy seat and a Mustang solo for my 09 Ultra. I am 6'4" with a 34" inseam. I find the riding position with the Tall Boy to be much better than the stock seat, but the Mustang solo is what I prefer. Since I bought the Mustang, the only time the Tall Boy is on my bike is if I am riding two up.

My bike is a 2012. I put the Tallboy dealer sample seat on. Took it out for a 30 minute ride. Hated it from the first minute. Felt like it raised me up at least 1 inch. Not a bad seat otherwise. Probably would've been more comfortable than the stock seat on a longer ride.
