Is there a seat out there that moves the rider backwards, away from the controls, rather than forward, towards the controls? I would love to stretch out a little more and don't want an engine guard to put pegs on or to change pipes for extended forward controls.
The Hollywood Solo moves you back a little bit. There is a guy making stock forward control extension on the site that you might want to check into, it looks like a great kit, but can't remember his name.
i too had the same problem i didnt want the engine guard with pegs. i went with the mustang solo tripper seat and wow wat a difference it gives you a good 2-3" id say and its god some nice cushion to it.
Corbin Gunfighter, Corbin Solo, Drag Specialties Low Profile Touring all get you an inch or two back.
Mustang Vintage moves you an inch forward. All relative to Custom std 2-up seat.
I had just the same need; I have 36 in inseam, so I need all the legroom I can get. I put on the Mustang Vintage Wide Solo and it definitely gave me a nice chunk of leg room moving me both up & back. It's just pretty darn comfy now.
Yea, I have a Corbin and it does move you back and also keeps the low profile. It is much more comfortable than stock but required some modifications to install as well as $400.
I just ordered the daytripper. I hope it gives as much room as the solo tripper, cause that extra room sounds good.
I just got the daytripper on tonight. After a quick 30 miles, I love this thing. It feels firmer than the stock seat but it's still comfortable. It does move you back 2-3" which I really like. The real test will be tomorrow. I am going to Milwaukee to partake in some of the 105th activities. It will be a good 3-4hundred mile test.
