The saddle has been leveled since that pic was taken, along with other adjustments to try and make it more comfortable. I believe the seat is as far back on the existing post as it can be. I can google setback seat posts.
it would be nice to find a slightly larger frame to at least try out. 820s are plentiful and cheap enough.
I found this one for sale locally. I'm guessing a '91 or '92 by its features.

Looks to be one size larger than mine
