Hi All,
I purchased a MT225s the other day and had the same issue with the seat. I realized was in fact a poor install. The issue is which orientation the track was in as they mounted it to the frame. Picture the sliding track mechanism on a kitchen cabinet drawer. It's like it was installed while the drawer was out and now the range of slide is skewed so that it can go only partly back into the cabinet and even further out into the kitchen. That's why the forward slide makes the seat almost touch the steering wheel!
To fix, remove the 4 allen bolts that mount the track to the seat lift frame. Then pull the slide lever up, and move the tracks to the opposite direction. Remount.
