I have a 2004 Ultra Classic Harley.Does anyone know of a way (other than changing the seat)to lower my seat .?
Would flipping the swingarm do the trick?Is there a lowering kit available that might work?I'm stumped????
When I'm ridin' solo,it's not a major prob for me.It's when I get a rider on back that the probs start.She sits so much higher than myself that there is no help to be had when we come to a stop.Just the least little bit of lean either way can get me in a whole lotta trouble.I figure with a flatter foot hold,it would make all the difference in the world.Lot of extra weight to balance on the tips of my toes.Guess I was to used to my old bike('73 FLH).Feet flat on the ground with even a little bitta knee bend.Balance?No prob on that bike.Help Mr. Wizard!!!!!!!

I would have the foam in the front portion of the seat cut down by an upholstery shop. Any other solution is going to reduce already limited cornering clearance.

You can get a set of the stock shocks that come on a Street Glide. They run about 250 bucks. There are various lowering kits available but they change the shock angle and will effect handling. The Street Glide shocks will bolt right on to your bike.

There are lowering kits on ebay.
Other than that, you might have someone rebuild your current seat and shave some of the foam off it.

Fit shorter rear shocks, its an fxr swinging arm frame so any harley dealer could sort you out.
