When I bought the Mustang, it sat me back, but also lower which made things worse. While stopped, my knees were close to 90 degrees bent and flat footed. The king seat also moved me back and a bit higher which also affected the reach on the bars but I am still flat footed at the light but my legs are a lot straighter. I changed to Helibars, but that is because I love low bent elbows when I ride. I guess I am the "anti ape hanger" guy.
