So how does it feel compared to the stock seat? does it sit you any lower, does it move you back any?
I haven't had time to ride it but I would guess it sits lower than the factory seat...dont' know about further back, but my reach seams to be comfy. I'll try and do a double check tomorrow and update you.

Thumbs up New c&c seat

YUP - LOOKING GOOD! I see what you mean and am sure it will be taken care of. I really like the stitched pattern you went with. Good luck and keep me posted. Get yourself one of those round plastic thingy's that go on top of your rear fender to replace the threaded insert for the seat mount when you're not using it. Cleans it up real nice. Just pull the C clip and it falls right out and pop the plug in. To replace it for 2 up just thread a long cable tie, coat hanger, or whatever works for you through the center of the insert and stick it back up under the fender and replace the clip. You'll be pleased with how much better it looks - not saying that you need any improving.

Yeah I haven't decided what I'm going to do about the rear seat nut. I'm familiar with the ole zip tie through the fender routine to get it back in place. Honestly, I was hoping to find a really cool black screw to put there. Something spike shaped would be cool.

Yea, great look. A solo seat changes the whole look of the bike.

I'm not able to solo, wifey wants to ride too often. Guess that's not a bad thing..

HD has a plastic chrome cap screw that you can paint same as bike if you have some touch up paint, makes it easier when you want to go two up.

Great looking seat and ride.
