Default Low Profile Seat

Any recommendations for a low profile seat for my 08 street glide? I just got rid of the HD reach seat on ebay. It just killed by back after a 600 mile round trip, so I put the stock seat back on. Did the same trip this past weekend and my back was just fine. The only problem is that I need a little more leverage to back the bike up on those slopes.

Corbin is out here in California, but CC I dont know who that might be. hmmmm

Have ya thought about a reverse gear??? it costs about twice that of a new seat, but if the seat you have is fine, then maybe that is the route to take.

I kinda look around before I park, and try to always just park uphill. I know it isn't always possible.

I ride a 980 lb Ultra Classic with me and the wife and junk on board, it must weigh about 1400 lbs. or more...
