I'm currently running a Whiplash / C&C Seat, which I LOVE, but I need to be a little closer to the bars, they used to modify their seats to accomodate these requests, but have stopped doing so.

Thanks in advance.
I recently purchased the Drag Specialties Predator III 2up seat and it pushed me forward at least 1-1.5". I have a 2018 Breakout and was reaching for the forward controls before. Now my knees are slightly bent and a very comfortable ride. Not to mention I also did 12" Apes and had to push them forward a tad bit compared to before having the seat.

Man .... I love that seat, but it doesn't appear to fit the FXLRS unless Drag Specialities hasn't updated their website yet.

So this seat would be the wrong choice for tall guys?
