    How does this seat compare in height to the original? I am looking for ways to shave some height off the top and I would love to kill 2 birds with one stone here.

    Height is about the same but the seat flat RULES. I have had several hi dollar seats and this inexpensive one kills them. Could not be more happy with it. the foam is unusual and PERFECT and the seat cover while not flashy and colorful is perfect grip and looks very nice / fits perfect. GREAT product from those guys.

    The standard kit is stock height. We can cut them down per your request. Just be aware that there is very little foam there and you will lose comfort. If you want to order one cut down just send us a email with what you are looking for and we will take care of it.

    Hi just thought id let you guys know my experience regards shaving the seat. I had mine done and the guy got a bit carried away. When your sat on the bike you tend to slide forward a bit and this alters your foot angle. So makes the rear brake pedal too high even when fully adjusted on the cam. I recon your better off getting your rear shock modified. Charlie SAM_0022.JPG

    Just placed my order for a 449 seat. I had them do the foam .5 harder on their recommendation since I weigh 275lbs.

    None really. Just better foam and wider in the rear. I still highly recommend this GREAT seat.

    Got the seat a couple days ago. A local Phoenix shop is going to charge me $35 to install it. They are busy with Arizona bike week orders right now, so I have to wait a couple of weeks. :(

    Install it yourself. I did mine on my 511 and I;m not real good at that stuff but the seat pan is soft enough to not struggle real bad with the staples and the foam and cover fit so well you can hardly mess it up.

    We do not have a tall version in kit form. Give us a call and we will give you details on doing a custom tall seat for you.

    Yes, just mention it when you order. Great people to work with. I have three of their seats on three different types of bikes and they all RULE. Went from never buying a seat in 30 years of riding to having to have a SC seat on all my bikes, they are that good IMHO. Or, maybe i am getting that old :D
