Don't worry, the toy beamer behind it is NOT mine.

 

I had a Badlander seat as well on my 06 Street Bob and although it looked good, it killed my back.
I went to a RallyRunner seat from H-D. It has the nice low cut looks of the badlander but has much better back support and a better pad for the passenger.
Not a touring seat by any means but an option nonetheless.
I'm looking to sell it because my back went bad this spring and I need a big padded touring style seat if I want to ride at all this season.
Here's a pic of the rally runner on the bike.
Seats are tough because everybody's different

 

Ditto on LWOS's comment, that's a great deal on a Mustang 2 up! Good luck and definitely post pics regardless of what seat you end up with.

 

I noticed that you've got the detachable sissy bar, but WITHOUT the turn signal relocation kit. How did you achieve that? I've been told it's impossible on my 07?

 

Hi- I have a Danny Grey big seat solo seat that I took off my lowrider. It makes me too tall. Might be just the ticket for you. If you are interested, I can send you photos, or you can look it up on Danny Grey web site. I'll sell this seat for $125. It is like new condition.
Thanks- Carol

 

Thanks for the thought, but I looked at the seat and it will not sit me far back enough.

 

Quick thanks to everyone that helped me out. I should have seen this coming, but... like the bike, I went over my budget.

It made the most sense to kill two birds with one stone and spend an extra $100 getting a dynamite seat that would move me back as opposed to extending the forward controls. I went with (per one of your suggestions) the Le Pera Maverick - Daddy Long Legs. Puts the rider back 2". I might need to tweak the mini apes, but should fit the bill perfectly for myself, my bike, and a passenger.

I fooled myself into thinking that I was 'saving' money by not doing a detachable sissy bar now and going rigid. Found some cheap parts on e-bay, just need to get the sideplate kit now!

Thanks again - this forum is great.

 

I don't know about the 07, but I simply got the H-D kit and that's how it comes out.
06 thru 08 uses the same hardware so your 07 .
The turn signal kit is this:


Directional Relocation Kit


Required for installation of Detachable Sideplate Kit P/N 52866-06 on DynaŽ models without saddlebags.

53968-06C


Fits '06-later FXD, FXDB, FXDC, FXDL and FXDSE models.

MSRP US $34.95

 

You just made my day!!! I was told by 3 different f'ing dealerships that there was no possible way to do detachable sideplates without the relocation kit, which of course they want 2 hours of labor for. A-holes.

Thank you!

 

It is called a relocation kit #53968-06C but it doesn't really relocate 'em. they come out just like mine
