Back dat ass up

Do you sit with your butt touching the back edge of the pilot area of the banana seat?

If I sit this way, I find my legs fit better (a lot!!!), however I feel like my body is raised an inch and forced to incline forward. Bummer.

By design you think?

I don't sit in any one spot 100% of the time. I move for comfort and to keep the arse from going numb in that spot.

Probably. Although the raised inch I think I could live without. Maybe I'll have it shaved down.

get a spare seat in advance.

that way you can still ride if it goes wrong.


i plan on replacing the foam with a harder foam bottom a thin gel layer and then over laying thick vinyl.
