Reach seat? Just go with the Hammock? (probably the most comfortable) or save a few and get the Sundowner?

Thanks in advance
the Hammock is a tall seat, if your looking to get lower, that won’t help.

I just purchased a 2018 RGS leftover that the dealer had installed RC Components 4.5 inch Rage" slipons with Eclipse tips in black. They look and sound really good and added some torque.

As far as the seat I loved the hammock seat on my 2011 CVO Road Glide Ultra so I've added that to the RGS for when we ride 2up. Really comfortable for those 400 mile rides.
