After market seat
Is there an aftermarket seat that allows taller folks seat back further and still have a back rest?

Look up Corbin seats(sponsor). They have a shop in Florida and do custom ride in seat builds.
Identify what you have control over and find peace with what you don't.

My husband has the Ultimate Tall Boy seat and backrest on his RT along with the Tri Axis handlebars. Below is information copied from the Ultimate web site that describes the seat and what it does for the rider.
Our Ultimate Tall Boy Spyder RT is designed to sit you at the same height as the stock seat and one and a half inches further back from the handlebars. If you feel too cramped with your stock seating position, our Ultimate Tall Boy seat will help.

Have a good long look at Russell Day Long. They are more expensive as you have to supply them with a seat (either your own or a second hand one from eBay), but they will make the seat to fit your exact specifications based on photos you take and your riding requirements. Corbin, Ultimate and Mustang are all good seats, but if they don't work for you, you have to return them and start again. Russell will rework their seat if it doesn't work for you up front (rare), until it gives you all day comfort.

Thank you.
I felt like I was in the same boat as many others on here with the general advice: "just go to a meeting and try out different seats!" Unfortunately, I do not have that luxury.

Does anyone have a number for the BRP comfort seats? In their catalog all I see is the "vinyl/leather coast to coast seat" and the cannonball seat.
I have an f3 s and looking for an extra few inches before my tailbone hits the seat ledge.
