I agree 100% the only thing is I can't find a solo that will get me in the bike as low as that seat. I am thinking about cutting down the passenger section to make it sleeker and I did pick up a Badlander but I haven't had time to mess with it much yet. For some reason the badlander don't have good fitment around the gas tank but I do think a solo seat would make it look great.

I am having the same issue with my '09 SG. The stock seat had me sitting way too high, I swapped it out with a Danny Gray Big Seat (Solo with pillion). Although the Danny Gray seat sits me substantially lower, I find that it is still not low enough.
Good luck with your search for the solo seat - you have a great looking bike - very tastefully put together!

Well, just when I thought I was about done a few more things get added to my hurry up and do list before I am done for the winter projects. I got the saddle bag latches added from Bastani, great quality. This past week I worked on a previously modded seat by someone else and they did some things that made me think. Then I thought about the new Hammock seat from HD that comes on the SE Ultras. So I took the stock badlander that I had bought off Ebay seveal months ago and came up with a new modification. I got to test it out today some, rode over 225 miles and I think I have found something that is going to kick ***. The Stock seat that I had modded was super low but this thing is the lowest seat I have ever came up with that is comfortable on longer rides but the real test will come tomorrow, planning on running 350-400 miles. Anyways, here is a updated picture of the bike with better resolution.
