Slimmer low profile seat mod?
02/28/16 at 12:05:55

Hey guys/gals/other so I've gotten my bike to a place where I'm really digging it... however I was wondering if anyone knows of a relatively easy (not trying to build my own seat from scratch) mod or aftermarket seat that's slimmer and lower profile than the stock seat? I would prefer to keep the passenger seat as well... a king queen would be awesome but I know that's a stretch. any help at all if very much appreciated! thanks. Smiley

There are still pictures of it. if you care to look.

not sure exactly what you are looking for but if you haven't take a look at the build I am working on right now at this link.

you can ignore the mod to the front of the seat as that was only needed due to the new tank. The rear mod was to cut down the profile of the seat. I used the stock cover. You don't have to do the full mod that I did where I even modded the pan. I did that only because I was very picky and wanted an exact look.
