Default Solo seat for Dyna Streetbob

What seat designs/makers would be best to get a seat that will move a tall guy (already have forward controls) as far back as possible?

Boyond the usual "tall boy" seats, You can also get forward control extensions up to at least an extra 3" forward of stock.

I had a Mustang that put you pretty far back. I am 6' and it was a little too much. I changed it for a Danny Grey that fit me better.

If it was me I would go for the extended forward controls. Unless you find the oem seat uncomfortable. to me, the stock sb seat is perfect. I can ride all day every day with that seat. I bought one for my lrs right after I traded in my bob. Plus I like the look better how it shows more of the fender.

Depending on on which brand extensions you go with, it'll probably be cheaper than a new seat

Check out Mustang or C&C. I have a Mustang Day Tripper on my LRS that is a little narrow for me. The C&C Sport Tour that I had on my Fat Bob has a wide saddle but has pretty thin padding. I am 6'4" so to move me back C&C had to thin out the padding. They do offer gel inserts though.

Good luck and welcome from P'ville!

I agree with the extended forwards, I am 6'2" and I tried a bunch of seats and finally went with the extended forward controls with a LePera Villain seat.
