As in make it a tad higher/take out the dip and flatten it out?

I reckon that would require a little upholstery to reach around the added foam.

I need something but not quite sold on ordering an expensive seat from Japan only to be not 100% satisfied.
There is a guy that does that in Oregon....I will find the info and get back to you...

Spencer - http://www.greatdaytoride.com/ did my 2014 std seat. I sent it to him last year. It took about a week to get back and didn't cost too much, more than $50, less than $90, something like that.

I asked to make it higher and more flat like you described, it came back looking pretty much same as before. But it does have a nicer foam (I think) anyway, I'm getting used to it. My favorite looking seat is the custom one that lots of guys have here where the seat is really shaped.
Thanks for the link Vic
I had my deluxe seat done by Spencer also......he does not do modifications , just changes the foam.
what do you mean by "modifications"?

I reckon anything done to it is a "modification" No?

I'm looking to add foam at the seat to flatten it out. I'm guessing a new cover would have to be made.

the local guy near here does an in person fit session starting at $450.

I'm wondering if I'm gonna get what I pay for going with Spencer.

When you get it back from Spencer it will look EXACTLY the same, period. He will not do anything else .....he won’t flatten it out.
got it.
