Corbin Gunfighter Seat

Yet another question about a purchase. I think I'm going to pull the trigger and get a new seat. I'm thinking about the Corbin Gunfighter, but here's my question. I'm 6'1" and I tend to sit back on the strap of the stock seat. I'm worried that on the Gunfighter, I won't be able to stretch out. Has anyone had an issue like this? Did the seat work fine stock? Am I overthinking things again?

The Triumph solo seat offers a lot of room to move around. In fact, I used it 2 up last night! Worked great.

I have the g&l and I'm going to have to sell it for that very reason - it makes me sit too far forward. The solo seat w/rack fits me very well tho..

In any case, you might want to take the strap off of your regular seat. It doesn't do anything besides be uncomfortable to sit on.
