I think a Lot of seats are designed to put the rider more forward than we want. I had the same problem with the Sundowner I got. sat way high, and forward. so I pulled the 'leather' back and shaped the foam myself, cut about 1/2" off the top, and probably 3/4" backwards into the hump. Now it sits like i wanted.

sold to some MC in Miami. terrible that it didn't work out. the new gauges are nice and hella useful. would be nice if the moco made some for the disenfranchised dynas... rough road ahead now that we are in v-rod status.

very true but, the dakota stuff is an aquired taste and doesn't quite match the styling of the new/stock stuff. i'm still going to do the speedo and tach on the bars but, i keep getting caught up in other projects. i was just going to go with the now low rider gauges over the pre-2018 stuff. chopper haus has also dropped the ball on the risers anyway. i don't know what the malfunction was but, hey.... fun times

I wonder if Smiths or any of the classic gauge manufacturers build modern Harley compatible dials.... Hmm... I'd be down with modern-twist bobber that had dual Smiths gauges.
Or maybe some custom faces from a place like revlimiter (popular with the Miata crowd)
