Default Seat Question

I've been pondering options for a seat I want and I need some guidance. What I'd like to have is a solo that looks like the old buddy seat with a grab bar. Maybe even do it in white. Anyone know an outfit that can build something like that? Corbin has one, but I'm not crazy about it and it's almost 600 bucks.

You might wanna get a PM off to Harley Cruiser. He just showed a seat he has from a Heritage Springer he mentioned he might sell on e-bay. It's made for a softail...but seems to fit your bill...and with little (?) ingenuity..................

My company Saddlemen makes a nice line of "solo" seats. We can even custom make one in white I believe. See Saddlemen Motorcycle Seats, Luggage and Accessories

Could always do a custom seat. Both the guys I have listed can re-shape your current seat, add in gel, ect. Then recover with something that will make your bike stand out.

Well, I checked with several outfits and no one will build me one. Corbin has one but it's really not what I want. I know a couple of local fabricators that I'm going to talk to and just have something built. Thanks for the info.

See if you can't locate a police bike, all of them come with the solo setup you may have to make some mods to the seat to get the exact type your wanting, but I would start looking at some of the retired police bikes they all come with a solo seat.
