1 Heli bars: I was thinking I could pull the bars back to relax the reach;
2 Ultimate seat (King): I know the RDL is much loved, but Ultimate is a 4 hour ride up 95 here in FL. The King moves me back an inch or two.
3 Ridesmith? or Kury mini boards?
4 Kury Ergo III or Rivco?
5 I have a Bagger shield, but think I need a bit taller for a long ride. Maybe Klock 16"?
6 A really hot chick to sit behind me and .....

All you guys with miles of experience on the B could really give me a sense of what and in what order. Help much appreciated!
I find the seat on the B is great. I am 70 and 5' 10" and 300+ lbs and I can ride all day on the stock seat. I have on the ergo 3's and very rarely use them. I am glad I put on the baker wings under the mirrors. they cut a lot of wind when closed and let in a nice breeze when open. as for moving back a little in the seat for comfort, have the hot chick sit in front of you!, good luck and enjoy
