Contact Mean City Cycles, they can make your seat fit you like a glove and customize it to make it lower, higher wider, narrower or what ever your needs are. Turn around time is great as you make an appointment and send your seat in a few days before it is to be done. It gets done on the date promised and shipped right out. I love mine and hundreds of others do as well. Much better than any Harley or after market seat, and in 40+ years of serious riding, I've rode them all. Hope this helps

Sounds like you got a pretty good answer already, but otherwise, LePera makes some pretty cool low profile seats.
