Have now had a customization for the stock seat, by Mach1 in Sarasota, Fl (941726 4902). Dana fit the seat to me with many trial fittings, carved out so I ride in and not on, and modified the sides such that my legs now go down instead of out to the side. I now fit very well, for a modest price.

The use of local upholstry shops is really a good idea. They can give you a true custom seat for less cost than most of the big suppliers.

Dice,

Can you post a couple of pics here? And maybe tell us about what this would cost. Not asking for the exact cost but maybe an estimate? I'm thinking of doing something but not sure yet. I have the air hawk but would much rather have a seat that doesn't need any type of seat pad for long rides. The SWing is just fine for a few hours but more than that I need the air hawk. Thanks for sharing.
