Not that problem, just did not like the stock seat on long trips, switched to a Cobin dual heat, love it.

If momma ain't happy no one is...get to the root of the matter...question, question and more question until YOU understand the concern...Then address the matter as best as possible...

Get momma happy and you will be too!

So agree with the relocation kit from George.  We just picked our new CVO Road Glide Ultra today and we had the kit installed before we took delivery today, the wife loves the seat and the extra BSR room she has now!

I had the same issue and the wife is tiny as well. The george anderson rack did the trick.

Works great and if take the material that hangs from the back rest to the seat and reattach it will cover the amp

I had a similar problem, so I got rid of the problem.... and kept the seat ;D

I had great success with Kreun custom in Blackhawk, SD-- he does shipped orders. He can do tailbone cutouts, gel inserts, etc. He made my street glide seat comfortable, which was no easy feat.

Got a buddy who's wife complained the passenger seat was too small...

He replied that it WASN'T the size of the seat that was the problem...

...He slept on the couch for a week!

George only takes cash not credit and has no website.  What a nice looking plate and works oh so well.  He dropped shipped to my dealer and they did the install.  The parts guy was so impressed with it and he knew 3 others that had used another kit that was not working out so well so he ordered this one.  No one has been disappointed in the plate!! Lots of luck.

The plate I could take a picture of it under my tour pack but I don't think it will turn out very good.  It is just a very nicely machined heavy steel plate and painted with black powder coat.  Very quality piece of work and for something you really don't see after it is installed. 
If I find time later on today I will try to take a picture of it and see how it turns out.
