when i was a pro v twins they has a number of 749/999 with seats that were modified,they were all had extra padding /foam,they reacon it will transform you on the bike,anyone got one,tried one?
I will be having a look at a modded seat pad in the next few weeks, but don't have any details of who made it and how, as yet. I am told that it is taller than the standard pad, so I thought it might be relevant to your query.
Oh. Having re-read your original post, I don't know that it is the same as the ones you saw at Pro V Twins, so what I end up with may be irrelevant to you.
I can't see how a raised pad can make a difference that can't be achieved by lowering the bars. What does make a difference is the pad at the back of the seat which controls how far back you can slide,most people prefer weight forward on 749/999 hence everyone slides the tank seat unit forward but if you end up slowly moving back on the seat you've negated that. On my old SP2 Honda I had a big bit of foam stuck to the seat just to keep me forward . The stock mono seat on a 999 isn't easy to modify but you probably could try sticking a bigger pad in and testing it.
i wish yellow-mellow could get get a photo? hes seen these items also,i only sat on one.im surprised no one on here hasnt had one from them? they are a light grey in colour.
