The padding on stock seats can be pretty thick. Long time ago I switched from stock to a Corbin Gunfighter on my 97 WG. Definitely put me back and down compared to stock.

You need to get lower or farther back?
Im a tall guy as well. So with my forwards on my 05, I needed a tad bit more room. I got it using a le Pera bare bones seat. It was tough getting used to, as its pretty thin and drops you considerably, but now Ive got an iron butt and can ride for days. |
Hey, do you have stock forward controls or extended? I have a 2" extension on my bike, much better for longer legs. Stock was a little cramped.

Im 6 2 so not near as tall but i just put a mustang wide touring REGAL seat on my wide glide. The Regal is the pillow looking seat and was actually discontinued on March 5th this year. I managed to find one in stock at Motorcycle Superstore. Anyway the padding is very thick and raised me up a bit and increased my leg reach which is nice. At 6 6 i think extended forwards would be your best bet. I saw a kit at JP cycles that will extend stock forwards another 3 inches which would be a major help at your height i think.
