I had a Hammock on my 12 Ultra and loved it. When I bought the 14 Limited I had an adjustable backrest put on. Now I find that a Hammock will not fit a bike with an adjustable backrest. I may have to go back to a standard backrest with a Hammock seat. But before I do, can anyone with a Hammock on a 14 Limited tell me if it changes your seating position. I've been told that it sits you back further from the bars. True?

Can I help you by taking any measurements or something? Let me know...

It doesn't move you back as much as the older version. I have a 2014 Hammock that I took off my '14 TK after about 4kmi. Just couldn't stand it any longer. It put pressure on the bottom of my inner thighs & crowded the jewels. Never bothered my butt, just was never really comfortable.
Could be easily talked into selling it; I replaced it with a Danny Gray Airhawk Longhaul.

Don't know if it will fit - the passenger part is wider & may rub on rear speaker pods?

I thought about the Danny Gray as well

I have a 13 and a 14 seat. They are on my 13 Road Glide and my 14 limited. I have switched them back and forth between bikes. the 13 sits a little lower and farther back, the 14 has more padding around the outside edges. Just from sitting on them the 14 seems like it gives more support and is softer but I havent done any long rides on it yet.

I have the 14 hammock seat on my 14 Ultra Limited and it is way more comfortable. Seems to sit a little farther back. 1st trip, I had regular seat for a 400 mile ride. Literally a pain in the hind end. Second trip - had the hammock seat for a 400 mile ride. Way better. Cut my rest stops from once every 90 or so miles to once every 150-180 miles.
As for the old lady, she hasn't spent enough time on either to comment on her comfort.
