I, too, installed a  7 paassenger seat into my Westy, and found the
seat too "tall".

I was riding in a slightly different position, a situation to which I
could probably get used to, except I had a clearance problem between
the steering wheel and my legs.  I'm 6' 0" tall, and of relatively
normal proportions, other than being larger than my doctor feels I
should be.  A smaller and/or skinnier person might not have this
problem.
