Default Seat adjustment for taller people

I am 6'2" and would like another couple of inches of travel for both seats. Does anyone know of a way to increase the distance of travel? Aftermarket mounting brackets?? Re-drilling the existing brackets??

What do you mean by travel? Up/down? Front/ back? If front / back, the mounting on the seats is designed to work in a couple of different positions. This by itself can give you another inch+ of seat travel fore and aft. You should check to see what position your current seat is in as it could be a 10 minute fix to move it back if it is not there already....

Bob, you sold your TT, right?
Did you get anything else?

What options are there for increasing headroom? I'm 5' 11" but long in the torso leaving me with not a lot of headroom. Wearing a helmet is out without recling the seat like a deck chair. I could get a non sunroof car but that's more drastic then I would like. I have stock non-sport seats BTW.

Viper Bob,

I'm looking for leg room, so front/back.

I'll check the settings.

Thanks
