I have an after market C&C seat which puts me down and back a little. I'm getting the feeling that the 8" is going to be the one for me given the 10" mark I have is just where I can look thru or really sit up and look over. I don't want the darn thing to be that close to being in the way. Maybe the 9" should be the one.
