Hey everyone, Im a proud new owner of a 2009 Softail Custom. I just wanted to say hello to everyone and get ideas for a good solo seat for myself. Im 6'1 and 225lbs, I'd like to kick my legs out a little more when riding solo. Any suggestions?
Definitely loving the Softail btw. Im gonna miss my 06 Street Bob, but the new mistress will do me well.
I have the Mustang 15" Vintage Sport Solo with Driver Backrest, great seat. Many miles with no pain. Use the backrest on long trips but now find it useful around town for securing my roll bag to when I have the sissy bar off.

I understand the desire for a solo, but I doubt you will EVER find a seat as comfy as the OEM....plus that king/queen seat is a big part of the classic chopper look the Custom is known for...think about it long and hard......sorry, being a little pushy on that one!
I am 6'6", and put on the Ness control extensions. $250, and they moved my stock controls 3.5" forward(you will also need an extended rear brake line, obviously).
Also, I put on the Kuryakyn SwingWing pegs. oh, these are so cool. folded up, they are a little larger footprint than pegs, but you can swing them out where they act like highway pegs on demand. they give me even more room forward and out for my legs....man what a comfortable ride I have now!
Very nice, looks like one of the older Streetstalker kit's for a Fatboy.
If it is its very nice, but you put it in the wrong section.
This is the section for "Custom's" not Fatboy's.
If you like I can move it over there for you?
