Default Touring Seat

Anyone have recommendations for a more comfortable seat for a 2005 Ultra? At 6'2" I find myself too close up front - would like to move backwards a bit. Thanks,

A Corbin Dual Touring seat will move you back, it will be very comfortable for all day riding, and it will look great doing it. It is high quality and worth the money in my opinion.

There are lots of opinions about seats, so I'm sure you will get info here on some other great choices.

Regards,

Bill

The Mustang touring seat offers day-long comfort and moves you back about an inch. I've had Mustang's on my last three baggers and they were all more than adequate for 500+ mile day rides. Below is a picture of my 2000 RKC with the Mustang solo. Below that is my Street Glide with the Mustang one-piece touring seat. Lots of people on this board also like the Sundowner seat. I've also had Corbins on some of my bikes - hard as bricks. I couldn't go more than two or three hundred miles a day on them. Good luck.

You might consider taking your seat to a local upholstery shop. They can trim the foam, or replace it with a high density foam that will be thinner and still comfortable. This would probably be your cheapest route. I am shorter, so I've had just about all of my seats altered one way or another. So far so good.

Harley makes a tallboy seat. Don't have one, so can't speak of comfort. Moves you back 1/2" and up 1 1/4" according to web site. It lists for $269.00, but you can get it delivered from Chicago Harley for $225.45 shipping included. See it here:
