My raised seat mod brought me not only higher, but also further forward. This was an unintended result. So, I needed to position myself back again - at least for track riding and other spirited riding. I wanted original weight distribution, maybe some nut protection and a better anchor point when braking hard."

Shaped a piece of hard foam, had it upholstered, secured under the seat and with velcro up front. Not pretty, but a very good functional result.




Rival neighbour country Sweden is not to be supported and I must be loyal  [cheeky] That means no yellow suspension for me  [leo]

Not to dis, but maybe it would look better in Black to match the side pads? Cool idea though.

That was on the table, but it was 70-30 in favor of red....
