Yeah, probably. I'm looking at solo seats w/ driver backrests with other alternatives to Corbin/Mustang..

Monterey solo on my road king. Not a great perspective but may be helpful to see it. It does sot me back and down a bit from stock. I'm 5-9 so may not apply to you.

Very nice. That seat has some nice lumbar support. I bet the backrest version would be pretty comfy? Have you experienced any long rides to gauge touring comfort?

I have about 4 years and 40k miles on my Maverick Daddy Long legs and absolutely love it.

Did about a 2 hours last weekend. Feels great so far. I talked with Ashley @ LePera and she said most folks find that high lumbar adequate. Plus the removable option is 100.00+ more

I deal with LePera directly. No discounts and I pay shipping, but great customer service. Have a dealt with Christine LePera and Ashley R. Very nice folks.

Both myself and the GF love this seat for long touring. We recently went to Arkansas and back to Texas and have zero complaints. Well worth it. We have the maverick smooth....
