Default Seat Suggestions to push me farther back..

My 07 Bob has the stock seat. I recently added Kury's 3 1/4" extended forwards. My inseam is 34". My legs feel cramped (too bent) with the stock seat. If I slide back so I am sitting on the back of the stock seat, that feels like where I need to be, though I might have to bring the stock mini-apes back a touch if I get that far back.

Any seat suggestions that will put me about 3-5" back from the stock 07 Bob seat?

Also, I do add the HD passenger pillion for two-up riding...it attaches with a plate to the stock Bob seat, so a new seat would have to be able to do that or look good enough to keep on all the time, even when riding solo.

thanks for the help in advance,
Hugh

I have been looking myself, really like the c&C sport tour, but dont know how they feel.

For just myself, i use a bare bones, not sure how you could get much back and lower than that.

As a lot of you know, I love my C&C fast back. Puts me a little further back.

Lepera Barebones for sure. Not the most comfortable seat but looks really nice.

I have a sport tour C&C and love it, looks great and feels great. Not saying it would be the ticket for you or original poster but I have done 600 mile days a good number of times no sweat. And have done 1 over 1k mile day and 1 930 mile day no problem.
The seat sets you back and down from the original seats. Pic. of seat in my sig.
