2009 Nytro Front End+ Rebuild

I ordered my WRP today from Barn of Parts $289 + sh, the one I ordered had a black stripe option (vs white on side), does not look like your seat has those panels, what year is your WRP? I went to eBay and did not find any so wanted to support BOP, great experience with them now on multiple purchases, thanks for loving Nytros!

I purchased my seat used from a member on here , so I dont know what year it is. I have 4 winters on it.

That makes sense, WRP must have added the stripe panel (black or white) in a later version. Can't wait to ride with one, I staged two 2x6s on my seat figuring the 3" of wood would be similar... Amazing the difference in ergonomics and hips above your knees stance. Bring on the snow!
 
I blacked out my 2009 XTX a few years ago, one of the best things I've done to it.

love the WRP seat! I never sat down until I got this seat, it's perfect in my opinion.

How I feel, add another 2" of solid support and knees are in a better athletic position. I noticed this with my PowerMaad handlebar mod, 3" up and 1-2" back was amazing standing, powerful, solid. Put my a$$ up 2-3" and I am along for the ride!
 
48 F last night... : ) been eyeballing a Colt LE6920 before they are banned again... Already have a Burris 3x with red dot from last year when I had the same itch! Nytro parts budget held me back but all Nytro parts for this season are bought and paid for, hmmmm.... Need snow soon.
 
"WRP" seat arrived today, left in driveway... Good thing it was a chunk of foam, not impressed with UPS or shipping department packing. Oversized box, cardboard split on three or four sides & corners! Inside foam seat, seat cover material and "water shield" (thin plastic sheeting, might use the heavy duty plastic sheet I have instead) were all loose half inside a thin plastic bag with zero closure or tape and no packing of any kind! Box was 1.5x too large so everything must have been in the UPS blender during last 8 days! No visible damage I could see but no longer WRP brand, some other white and red rubber 2 x 0.5" name tag sewn on rear sides of seat. Not sure I like this as was going for all black but rubber label seems rugged but advertising none the less... Ok, enough of the arrival, foam seat seems high quality, solid injected single mold of foam (I imagine from China) as I suspect nasty production! Will post some more pics as I get things sorted and seat removed, not sure if I will tackle the assembly or not. I do have SS staples for T50 gun... Can't wait to ride 2-3" higher in the saddle.
 
Yeah the different manufacturer "seat concepts now" made me change my mind on the WRP seat. I liked the looks of the WRP simple mountain logo. I think I'll stick with stock, as mine is a 13 and all black as well. I think I would have had to send it back if it showed up to me like that. If seat concepts does not care enough to package their product correctly I would imagine quality control isn't their priority. Let me know if you run into fitment issues and how it holds up.

Agree, I was expecting the dark WRP logo vs the red, white and blue SCN sewn on rubber logo. I like the WRP seat shape so kept it. The seat foam looks like a solid single piece injection molded dense foam part. Seemed like it was solid, time will tell. The cover was as expected, multi panels of black material, undamaged even though mine arrived with the foam half out of the unsealed bag and the seat cover exposed in the box. The plastic liner that goes under the vinyl seat cover looks like a light mil paint drop cloth, put between foam and cover to prevent water build up in the foam. Can't wait to see how it sits and rides...
 
Looks sweet! I just looked online and this is the new Seat Concepts seat, they use what they call "carbon fiber" panels on the side and I only looked quickly but they may have changed their logo as I don't remember mine looking like this. I am sure it will be fine, hoping the new panel materials last as long as yours has, I cant wait for the extra inches on the saddle. Bring on the snow!

Forget what I said earlier. Just ordered the seat concepts seat and the OFT relocate kit. I'm hoping I like the combination better than stock. Lol love spending money on this sled for some reason.

Same... The new seat foam seems high quality, consistent density. The extra height will be fantastic to get your knees bent more like on a motorcycle and your feet more underneath your torso for a stronger riding position. Have not tackled the project yet, may bring to local boat cushion company to install.
 
The steering relocate felt to tall sitting down with the oem seat. I am 5ft 8 so maybe that's why. The relocater is a nicely built piece and I think with the seat concepts seat it will just right. It would be so much nicer if the seat just came installed on a pan. I will be having someone else do the install a boat shop is a good idea. Now I'm a bit concerned about wind protection. Have to wait and see.
