Has anyone added foam to your VECTOR seat for a more rider

[Shane]

...forward geometry? I was thinking it might make it a little more comfortable. Any thoughts?

Having it done right now, getting rid of the dip by the gas tank, and adding another 3" of height with some stiffer foam... should be done by the end of the week. i'll have some pics by then.

That's awesome! Please let me know what you think when complete and you have mounted it on the sled as I may try it too. Pics would be great!

highon boost did you get your seat done?

 

[highonboost]

Have 2 rides on it now, alot nicer ride, much better riding position, and better transition from sitting to standing.

That look's great.Did you do it yourself or have someone do it.What did it all take to do it?Thank's

WOW why does that look like a different seat cover ?

 

[Shane]

That looks AWESOME! What are the specs on the "new" seat if you don't mind? I would like to do something similar. What foam did you use? How thick at what points? Also, I see you have high bar risers. How high and did you have to replace the cables? If so, was it much of a pain?

Sorry to be asking so many questions but you look to have done exactly what I am trying to achieve.
Thanks.

THanks,

Not sure where highon's been, but the seat looks really cool and well done. You're asking about the risers and cables and if it was a pain...looks like he relocated the whole steering shaft for a rider forward effect and has no lights?

I bought the sportech FULLY adjustable 3 inch risers and installed them this weekend. Does not change steering geometry.

I will post a link to their site in a second, and I have to take a photo for you. Well, I have to have the wife help me to post it as I don't know how to download pics from the camera yet. Be right back with the link.

Here's a photo of the risers. I chose the three inch. Friday I take the sled in to have the seat modified. :exc:
