I had the stock seat on my wife’s bike tailored to fit better. (Small slender lady)
Basically they removed about an inch or so of foam from the back half of the driver’s seat. This did 2 things:
1) widened the sitting area about 2 inches (Believe it or not, it is a lot more room)
2) The seat no longer slopes forwarded, (No more riding up on the gas tank)
I was concerned about the lack of padding and worried about bottoming out and feeling the seat frame. (I’m 5’11 and weight 200)
I took it for a test ride and had no issues with it at all.
Also, unless you know what to look for you could not tell the seat was customized.
Total Price for work was $130.00
I hope this helps
All,
Thank you for the input on the Shocks, I will get them on the wife’s bike. She is small and I think she would benefit for them.
