And just for reference, another from a bit more distance showing the backrest folded-down and the Klock Werks (13.5” overall, 11” height) windscreen (at 6’4”, works well for me).

Another one…

Appreciate all the pix. That is what I'm leaning towards.

Is that two piece seat the same as whats on the 23.5 and 24 CVO?  If so George at BadBoyz Cyclez makes one for it.  Last I looked it still wasn't on his web site.  I was going to have him improve my seat this summer but he was having health issues and turn around times were over a month.

Looking at your pix again, I answered your question too quick. Yes my seat is the same style as your stock seat. Every time I call George or message him on FB, I keep getting told "in a few more weeks" until they make a backrest for it. Can you can a better pix from the side of your bike with that BR on it? I know I had to modify the one of his I ran on my '12 to let me sit back further. Also if you have the part number for it, I'd appreciate that also.

I’ll get some more pix for you.
Same installation/method as the factory CVO seat(s).
Mustang also offers a one piece set with backrest as well for the 2023.5/2024.
And, unlike the Saddleman seat for 2023.5/2024, the Mustang is applicable with the rear back “crash bars”.

My understanding George has had a serious health issue.  I do not have a part number, it was ordered by phone.  I spoke directly with George.  I will look tomorrow to see if I have better pictures.  If not I'll take a couple.

I think we're good with  the pix TB. Appreciate them all. Looks like roughly 1100-1200 bucks for the setup like yours. Corbin is right along that same line as far as the money goes. I've never had either of those seats so anything would be a risk just buying outright. Time to get over the big crowd disdain and head for a show where they'll both be there to check them out.

Sorry to hear that. I haven't seen much posted about it.

Bubba.  Your Mustang seat looks amazing. Looks very comfortable too. My seat works good for me but I haven't done an all day trip in a while. It's good but I would think the Mustang is a better set up.  Stuart.

Bad Boyz Cyclez back rest rear.  There is a zippered pocket in the back you can put small stuff.

[FLSTFI Dave]

This is at lowest setting.  It can go about an inch to inch and a half higher.  If needed to go lower you could cut some of the steel bar.

Ok. That's what I'm looking for. This setup is different from the original ones they did for the previous generation 2 piece seats.

[FLSTFI Dave]

Yes, quite a bit different than the previous generation.  Its a lot sturdier..  There is also an adjustment for backrest angle you can't see in picture.

That’s good - I ordered & installed one of theirs on my 2014 CVO Road King.
It was really “soft” and had way too much “flex” in the bracket - I sent it back (and they were very good about taking it back).
