I think I might be even a little shorter than you so I had the dealer put on a Reach seat even before leaving the showroom.
Now I'm about where you are...one foot yes, otheer foot on ball of foot.
I can reccomend the Reach seat in case you are interested.
I had the reach seat on my old Heritage and it was perfect. I was looking at the reach seat - Deluxe styling for the 2018s and it only says it pushes you forward not down. Wondering if it’s narrow enough in the front to narrow your stance?

Which seat did you go with?

I just installed the front fork fangs on my Heritage and went on a short, 1/2 hour ride. Good news, upward wind buffeting stopped. Bad news, the engine felt very hot and the check engine light popped on towards the end of the ride.
