I searched, honest!

I'm 6'2 and have been riding an Enduro/Adventure Bike with a seat height of around 33". So when I get on the Sportster I feel like I'm in a go kart, and my knees are flexed more than I like.

The bike came with a solo saddle in addition to the OEM saddle, and the solo would be easy enough to have fattened up at an upholstery shop.

But are there any saddles available that raise you up more? I'm willing to risk the Fashion Police for a more comfortable riding position.

 

Certainly. Go to your local stealership's "Fit Shop," and tell them your problem. They'll fix you right up.

 

Stay away from the stealer at all costs if your looking for a new seat!! Corbin, mustang, cc make great slammed seats but not HD.

 

Forward controls will open up your **** pit alot
The Mustang seat are top shelf comfort,,
My Mustang vintage solo moves me back about an inch,,maybe less,
also up an inch..
6'0",,on mids and comfy
I've seen and cant recall the maker of seats that take you back 2"

 

Thanks for the post, I've been searching for the answer to your question for a few months and was about to start my own thread but decided to search one last time.

I almost pulled the trigger on a mustang vintage solo for my 07 nighster, but all the pictures make it look like it's going to push me forward a bit, or at least not let me slide back at all. Right now, as uncomfortable as the stock seat is, I can slide back a bit up the hump. On the mustang vintage solo, it doesn't look like I would be to comfortable doing that. Then again, if it pushes me back 1 inch or so as Osco says I wouldn't have to.

Osco, if you could remember the name of the seat that moves you back 2 inches, I'd appreciate it!

I have forward controls, just looking for a bit more leg room and a bit more padding.

 

Hi there, I am 5'10" or 11" and have the sundowner seat. So far I have had luck with feeling like I can move back on the seat to stretch out.

 

Im 6" and got lotsa more legspace with spring seat. It can be adjusted 1"-3" more backwards than the normal fixed seat position. It may be bit higher than OEM seat, depending on the mods being done with mounting kit.

 

I have the Mustang Solo Tripper. It moved me back at least an inch or two and lowered me too.

 

The HD Tall Boy seat will move you back 2 inches but not up. It's not a solo seat though. I bought a used one recently and like it it combination with an Air Hawk that moves me up just a bit.

 

Here's another option, get your seat raised along with some bars that are a bit of a longer reach-
