Default Mustang summit seat 14 and later touring

was thinking of getting this seat. Is there anyone out there my size that has experience with this seat?
I'm 6ft 245lbs. 32" inseam.
Seat sits the rider back 1.75" and I'm assuming that the passenger will lose their seating by that much too unless somehow the seat was engineered not to have any loss in the passenger area.
I'm hoping that I won't have to get new bars after getting this seat. It's between this seat or the HD Hammock seat that I demoed yesterday. It was better than my factory seat but I wonder how it will hold up over time. I'm riding a 15 ultra limited.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hey Neck -

I'm looking at these seats, too. It looks like they cut down on the padding behind the rider and it doesn't impact passenger room. Not certain though.

There are a lot of threads on here that have info you are looking for if you search Summit or look on that thread for tall riders.

Our Super Tourings, including the Summits, take about an inch away from the passenger length. The other 3/4" is taken out of the rider area.
