Cuttent seat on the MTS 950S is a 820mm low and I recently got the standard 840mm seat remodelled - Initial thoughts on the result-
Well, just got my "standard" 840mm seat back from remodelling and -
Now the front has a more rounded profile and a height of 820mm (as per my low). The rear of the seat has had the slope profile removed(as far as the base would allow) and has been scalloped to form a wider, flatter "pan". So far it feels better in that there is not that "pushed forward" feel with the standard seat with a flatter area to sit in/on. Still to do some real miles on it but initial impressions are good..

Photos wouldn't show much, the seat cover is not moulded to the new shape but pressing down on the seat and sitting on it shows the difference..

Went for a 90ml run today, motorway and country roads, found the modified seat an improvement in that no longer so much of a slope and pushing you forward. I bit flatter and less foam which gives a wider "pan" area to sit on, found it overall better for distance i.e. no real discomfort after the 90mls. Not as good as my Sargent seat on my Tiger though !!!
