Default Seat Question fxdwg

I've got a 2000 wide glide, with extended foward controls, stock bars with 6" pull back risers, badlander seat, I'm 6'4" tall & mainly ride solo, but I still feel a bit cramped. What I think I need is a seat that will move me back about 2". Do you think a mustang wide solo would do this?, or can anyone suggest another type...photo's of your set up might help. Thanks

I recently bought the Mustang wide solo, but didn't feel that it set me back any further. Have you considered extending your extended forward controls? My wide Mustang seat with 3" extended forwards (Kury's) fit my 34 to 35 inch inseam just fine.

Other than that, the next option might be to have your seat custom fit.
