If anything it's slightly lower but not significantly so. Your passenger will sit slightly higher.

I had one on my 114 Fatboy - You sit higher and further back, extremely comfortable... Just as an aside, I have the seat up for sale.. I hated the bike, loved the seat...

These two responses contradict each other. One says the rider sits lower and the other higher. Maybe it is due to different bikes? Which considering we are talking about the same framed bikes would also be strange.

Colour me confused.
