Default We want a Reach Seat

I've read that many of you have purchased a REACH seat from HD and have been unhappy with it. I have a female riding companion that is short and needs one for her new 2007 ULTRA. If you have one and are not using it for whatever reason please contact me at Harleyduo@hotmail.com and let's see if we can work out a purchase.

A Mustang with the adjustable backrest added. You could go with theirs or Harley's, either way they work. If you just want to try the backrest first, that's an option. You could have the stock seat modified, Alligator Bob (Alcalde customs. Lake Villa IL) did my last one and it worked fine. Stock seat was for show, Mustang was for go (150 mi+)

i have a corbin solo. list price is 499 but you can get it from zanottis for 350. i have loved it since day 1. haven't done any super long rides with it yet, but 4hrs is a piece of cake.

plus i really like the new mounting system they have. one key to remove the seat, no tools necessary.
