Default Springer solo seat...help please!

I know this topic has been done “over and over” but in all the article and posts I read I can’t find the seat, part or style I’ve been looking for, so I am appealing for a little direction.

Here what I’ve done...2010 Crossbones w a RSD rear fender. I’m looking for a lower slung Springer seat w a top pan w a little room for the ECU. Also something I can mount slightly more back towards the rear fender. Want to ultimately sit down in the bike more.

Just looking for for options I haven’t seen yet and one someone has had some success with.

Any my help would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

I'm using Shadetree Fabrications battery cover on my bones, all the other hardware/springs are completely stock. The cover has a little more "room" underneath so the ECM fits on top of the battery. I've even got my Custom Dynamics SMART Triple Play unit under that cover. I've been running this since 2014 with no issues.

I also replaced the factory sprung seat with a WLA reproduction from Corbin-Gentry. It's got less padding and a much better "dish" for comfort. It's not about the padding...it's about the shape. I can ride this bitch all day....

Congrats on the bones.

FBB...thanks for the pics. That’s what I was looking for don’t know how I missed it as I looked at Shadetree. Love the “no fender” bob! I just need a little lower ride in the seat, but I do like that shape.
