"more" rider forward seating position

ragdoll · Dec 7, 2012

Should have taken some before pics, but here is a side profile shot of my modified Apex seat.

It allows me to sit a bit higher, I'd say maybe 3 inches or so, getting my knee's lower than my hips.

I had a local trim shop stuff some foam in it last year, but they were a bunch of hacks (Larry's Upholstery in Oshawa...stay away from them)

So this year I took it to a more reputable shop, people who seem to know what they're doing. Havent picked it up yet, but will post better pics and more details if anyone is interested...

I did the same thing on mine myself,,,, much nicer position imo...

Looks good Mike, was any material added to the seat cover itself, or was it just stretched over the new foam?

Hope it works for you, as I would also like to do something similar/same.

If you look closely, you can see the strip of new material added...

Mike took his to Jason at Trim Tech at Taunton and Somerville in Oshawa.

I have heard he does great work so that is where I will be taking mine when the time comes as well.
