I have the Corbin DualTour that I got lucky with and bought here on the site. I love it for me - it but it's not so great for a BSR. Pretty hard and narrow in the rear. This weekend we bought an AirHawk air cushion for my wife. It made it little more bearable.



I also have a big, FUGLY H-D Hammock seat for two-up - but while it's better for the BSR, it SUCKS for me... it puts me up too high and is quite wide at the throat, which makes it difficult to ride on two-up. I don't want to put any money into it because it isn't the seat for me. If a friend doesn't buy it, I might sell it on here.

I would like to order a tall boy seat for my 2012 sg. and get rid of the stock seat. I'm worried because the HD book says you need to remove the fender strips to install the seat but does not say that you can replace.them after installation.  Does anybody know. thanks T.M.

i will post a pic in a day or two on what we did to avoid removing the strips on my new seat from "Ultimate Seats"


BTW, My wife and i did an 1800 mile trip. with 900 miles yesterday alone and rode for 15 hours in the saddle and this seat was great for both of us.

So here is the passenger pillion. I am pointing to one of the four corners that used to be raised and have a rubber protector on the protrusion that was ground flush with a dremmel.  The rubber and chrome strips are the exact same height as to what was ground down to make it fit.
This modification will allow the nice chrome strips on the fender to stay. Took all of 10 minutes. i recommend that if you go this route to have your vacuum on and running to prevent the debris from making a mess everywhere.

I just put a heated Corbin Classic Solo on mine that I had made to look similer to the stock 12 SESG seat have the matching rider backrest, passenger pad and pad for the HD sissybar. It is very comfortable in this first 100 miles but moves me forward quite a bit from the stock seat position. I'm going to give it one more day to see if I can adapt to being closer but with a 35' inseam I doubt it. If not I will be posting it for sale on here. Retail was almost $1200. I paid with shipping $1100.00

I have a 29 inseam, so sort of the opposite problem. Did it work out for you?

Kilaani - have you considered the Harley Reach seat? It moves you about 2" forward from stock.

I really want to find a seat with a solo backrest, no way is anyone going to be 2up with me.

TFB,
I was looking at that same seat at the Americade rally a few weeks ago, it felt nice and looked well made. Is it "the" seat for you? Have you tried anything else other than the stock seat?

Don't get me started on how many seats I've tried. This is a keeper, low, long and comfy.
