Hey fellow western PA'er, where are you from??
I will recommend a Road Glide or badlander seat, I am pretty sure those are the only 2 slim seats from HD that will not require the extension piece to cover the gap between the dash and the seat. You could look a a variety of aftermarket seats too.
Here is the 1998 version on my EGC:
I also tired a corbin, but hated it. Here are pix of that:

You could try a solo seat like possibly from C&C. You stripped off your tour pak and by throwing a solo on you really slim the look down. More like a street glide. It' a different look. You can always through your touring set up back on for the long haul

Always ask. You never know who may have some new insights or opinion. Most people don't mind re-answering a question.
