Thanks to all for the great advice.
Sounds like Corbin would be a great choice if they weren't 3,000 miles away. Mustang sets up a tent at a lot of rallys in this area so I'll see them in Ocean City Maryland during bike week in a couple weeks. If nothing really works out of their choices with fit and price I have Mean City customization , C&C, and Ultimate to look at also.

 

Guess that depends on how far back and how low the bars are. If they pull back another two inches and are 1 inch lower (from your original bars), you will be close to square one.

 

Unfortunately, I spoke with them today, and the gentleman in Canada told me that he didn't think I would be happy with his seat. He said that they maintain a near stock position, and that it is good for people up to 6' tall and an inseam of 32" max. After that, riders will feel cramped. I asked why he didn't make seats with pushback, and he said that the HD frame is too small, and that they are limited by the rear fender and passenger seating area... that if HD would realize that a lot of their customers are bigger guys, and made an XL frame with a couple of extra inches in it, they could do that, and avoid all of the time / energy / money that a lot of us taller folks go through trying to get comfortable. He said the frame on the Goldwing is good, but the engine position isn't, and you have to spread your legs like you are getting a pelvic exam when using their highway pegs, so those tall riders struggle too. Oh well... the games... and spending... continue!

When I demo rode the RK, I knew it would be like being on vacation, I was wrong, it was like a paid vacation. I am tired of the pelvic examine and the knee pain.

I just sent Des(Ultimate seats) off questions on this one minute ago. That is first class, A business owner telling you why you will not be happy the way it will fit you, he is going to tell me the same thing, bet. I have an Ultimate King Big Boy 4 pc studded set on my Valkyrie, as far as I am concerned the best on the continent, but $1100. He is at large shows/rallies and you can borrow a seat to try. I hope I am not breaking a rule, ultimateseats., my wife loves it more than I do.

I feel I need moved back and up on a new RK

 

Have the HD Hammock and pretty happy with it. The newer rider/passenger hammock sits you back an inch and down slightly. They have at least 3 versions; older rider only, new rider/passenger and new with heat. The seat is similar to the one they put on the CVO Ultra if you want to try one on a bike. I still need to add a backrest.
