Lower seat for '04 FLHRI

[bigblue]

I recently went from a '00 FLSTC to a '04 FLTRI and must say it's been a good decision for me. I do need to get more in the bike then the riding on top of the bike that the stock seat gives me. I would also like to stay with a 2 up saddle - lower profile.

Thanks!

Take a look at the seat on my bike(click the link in my sig)

That is a HD low profile(reach)leather seat.

I second that...............You can find 'em on eBay sometimes. I bought two of them for about 75 bucks each. They are leather topped and allow you to use a rider's backrest.

If you are looking for more of a hi-milage option than the slammed seat, I have noticed that the new Sundowner bucket seat (2-up) for touring models will sit you at least a couple of inches lower than the thick stock seats. Plus, they are somewhat sleek and look pretty cool - not so much so as the slammed seat pictured above, but much more so than the stock.

Thinking of getting a different seat for my FLHR too. Anybody ever put a badlander seat on theirs? If so, how does it look?

Badlanders look great, but they are only comfortable for bar-hopping.

John,
Thanks for the input. I had a badlander on my Lowrider and I thought it was comfortable once it was broken in and I got used to it. Was just wondering how they look on a Road King.
