Here is a little more distant picture so you can see the angle of the bars from the side.

I love the Sundowner seats, they are really padded. But I needed to stretch out a little more with these mid controls so I replaced it with a Tall Boy seat. The tall boy seat does not look near as good as the Sundowner in both quality and appearance, but I had to find something so I could live with the mid controls. The tall boy seat moved me back some when compared to the Sundowner and the stock seats.

The one in the picture is for sale. I have it listed in the classifed section if you are interested in it. I only put about 500 miles on it.
