Dengie Boy, I found a stencil that can accomplish what you want. I too want my (future) aftermarket seat to say HONDA:

Keep in mind, the rider seat, pegs and bars form a triangle, change 1 and it changes the relationship to the others. put on a taller seat to relieve the knees and the lower back has to bend further to get to the bars

check out/play with the numbers at cycle-ergos.com

Ferret, did you get your numbers backwards, it's "waist x length" , not the other way around :-)
