Default Seat

I have a 2003 1200 C Sportster. Im about 6' 2" and im looking for a seat other than the original where I could sit back a little more so I could stretch out a little more whether a solo or not. I love to buy another bike but right now Im not really in the situation to purchase another one. I really love the bike. Just trying to find a little more comfort. Any Ideas?

I had the same problem. On trips longer than an hour or so i stretch out by sitting on the passenger seat... Then i got a Softai and only ride the sporty to work. Problem Solved!! (not much help, i know)

I am also 6'2", about 200 pds. I ride an '05 883C. Same problem was fixed by a Sundowner seat. Hales HD in Mansfield, Ohio, will usually give you 20% off.
Hope the combination of the seat (which raises your butt about 2"), and your existing forward controls will solve your problem. I have had all families of Harleys, and I like this set up the best.
