06 rk custom with a c&c solo looks great and you sit in the bike not on it. as far as comfort for the maiden the best for me is mustang solo and passenger seat you can choose width for rider and passanger i also am 6"2 with 36 inseam

 

Thanks everyone. Is there a "seat compatibility" chart that shows which seats are compatible with which bikes? In other words, something that would show if a SG seat would fit on an RK? Or even a 2011 RK seat on a 2008?

I did notice at the dealer that the 2011 Road King seat seemed slightly lower than mine, but not enough to give that "in with the bike" feeling.

 

I had the same issue when I switched from sport bikes to my RKC. I am a bit on the short side, so not only did I need to get lower, and more "into" the bike, but I needed to be moved forward. I changed my seat to a Danny Grey Speed Cradle solo. I like this seat as it is much firmer than the stocker, and is closer to the feel of my old sport bike seat. I still don't feel locked in, but I can live with that. It takes a little getting used to the "open" feeling when riding this bike. But as I am older (if not much wiser) I think I will get used to the open feel just fine.

 

My 07 gives the feel of on the bike while at a stop but on the road I feel as though Im part of the bike. The stock seat was horrible (anyone wanna buy one). I had an ultra seat and was'nt happy with it either. I had Mean City mod the ultra seat and still was'nt happy (not a complaint on MCC it just did'nt suit me). I now have a Mustang Solo and am pretty happy with it. You still sit high at a stop (Feels like a well padded sawhorse to me) but once I pick my legs up its all good.

 

Good question! I've been thinking of trying a 2011 RG/SG seat as it was mentioned earlier that it will give you more of the "in" the bike feel....I may try it as the seat is pretty short money

 

I went with the Danny Gray Big Seat W/ Rider Backrest and XL passenger pillion, gel in both. It drops you two inches into the bike and back one inch. Instead of sitting on my king I now sit in it. I love it. Here's a link.
