Default H-D Tallboy seat

Just wondering if anyone has tried the Tallboy seat from H-D and opinions on it. I'm 6'1" ,don't really like forward controls but want a little more room with the mids.

I have one and I'm only 5-6 and it DID give me more leg room. Highly recommend.

It will raise you a good 2". I am going to get mine redone to lower the whole seat 2" down....I bought the seat to help with the wife's comfort...but we both don't like the raise. But I do enjoy the 1 3/4 back that it gives...and I am 6-1 also.
