Default Looking for some seat options.

The stock seat on my RG is ok, but for me I'm too low. I came off a Road King police with the tractor seat, for me absolutely the most comfortable seat. I have just installed that set up on my RG but not sure if I like the look. That also makes considerable wind blast with stock low windshield. My quest is to find a manufacture that offers a like a C & C fast back that lifts me up about 2". Thanks in advanced Dave.

Just curious, but why do you want to sit higher?

Thanks for the response, 1st sitting higher like the cop seat is comfortable, for me. I have way more control, especially when I compete in motorcycle rodeo. But I don't do it but maybe twice a year. I did look at the Corbin Widowmaker, thats a good lookin' seat plus options!

i think, for the money, the Hammock seat is nice. I’m sure there are better. It will lift you about 1.5-2 inches from stock. HD will let you demo it too.
