durk 617 Report post Posted April 10 Did some customization to the Concours this evening. Took a ride with Ame earlier during this week and she was not comfortable. Her back was bothering her even after installing the top case with pads. We did some experimenting with the bike and decided the seat rising up in the back was the problem. Quick search on the world wide webs and I was pealing the seat cover back and trimming the foam flat. Original Finished project What I carved out To test things took a thirty minute ride to dinner. She was definitely more comfortable but her right leg fell asleep. Going try adjusting foot pegs. May have to just bite the bullet and buy that new Wing.

If your ever near Pataskala, you can feel free to try out my Russell Day Long seat. Buying a new Wing is also a great idea. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
