Default Help with seat????

When I replaced the stock seat off of my 2007 Road King with a ultra classic seat, it moved me up 3 to 4 inches. Is there anyyhing that I can do to move the seat back. The seat is more comfortable but the handling is not the same as when the stock seat was on the bike. Plus I'm looking about 5 inches over top of the windshield.
Thanks,

Mean City Cycles can help. Allen (BadX here on the forum) would be able to remove and reshape some of the material.

Lots of members here like the mean city mods. Otherwise try c&c for a semi-custom seat, which is what I did.
