Apparently i have long legs... Sitting on my gl1500 my feet need to be under the heads to be comfortable...i really love the floor boards, not so much the shifter deal... But to have my feet on the boards i feel like I'm on a sport bike...
What recommendations does everyone have to help Aleve this issue haha
Best seat to sit about 3" father back?
Re: Best seat to sit about 3" father back?
You'd have to have a custom seat made, I'm in the same situation
It would get cramped between you and your back seater..
there is an add on that allows you to move the center luggage rack back as well
with you and your rider set back that will through off your front/rear balance

I removed the back rest thing, and I'm able to sit far enough back to be comfortable now, i really hate the floor board shifter deal...thats a horrible design

Mick O Pegs might be a solution.

I have these for leg streching on the highway, but, still could use them like 2-3 inches lower and 2 inches more forward
I got them for $25 !! from a guy near (super lucky Craigslist find)

That's why I mentioned Mick O Pegs. They are the only ones I know that are under the cylinder heads because they are spring loaded.
