Default Anyone found a seat that sits lower than their stock Low seat?

I'm wondering if anyone has replaced their stock low seat and if so with what? I have read the Mustang lowdown only gains a half inch and some don't like that it moves you forward. I like the looks of the C&C Sport Tourer but haven't been able to confirm if it sits any lower.I would like to see some pictures of different low profile seats being used on Electra Glides.The C&C website does not show any of their seats being used with a tourer pack.I'm looking for something that sits 1 inch lower than the stock low seat. Thanks for your comments.

the H-D brawler, I think goes farther back and down- i would guess that it is 1.5" lower and 1.5" back from my streetglide seat on my EG Classic- you can kinda use the crashbars as a visual gauge

at 6'2" 35" inseam it is actually a little farther back than I like, I use it in town, solo.
I have a number of seats that go on and off depending on what I am doing

got it cheap from a member on the classified forum here.---about $100

C&C lowers you about 1" I think. Get in touch with them - good guys to deal with, and great product. I've got the "squareback" model - about 1" lower, and I paid the $75 fee to move me back 3". You can also choose material, gel inserts, etc. etc.

Corbin also will lower you about 1" if you request it when they build your seat. Also go with the lower HD rear shocks, both gets you down almost 2".

Went from a Sundowner to a Danny Grey Butt Crack. Extremely comfortable and gave me a lot more room. Recently did a seven-day, ten-state, 3600-mile trip without any complaints.

For a solo seat my Corbin Classic solo sits at least an 1" lower than my stock seat but it isn't the most comfortable seat I've used.

Send your stock seat to Mean City Cycles, a sponsor, and tell them what you want. I had mine done about a year ago and am still quite happy.
