Does anyone know if anybody makes seats with lower foam? are the quadtech hump seat lower, or do they just have the raised rear portion of the seat?

you could always just cut the foam down and put the seat cover back on, i was going to do that this past off season but you need one of those electric meat cutting knifes, and the stock foam really isnt that thick, or atleast i didn't think it was thick enough to take some out and still be comfortable. i dont really care about being comfortable while im riding but sitting, waiting for your race to come up can take a while haha

no way dude you can sand it to your desired height and contour it as u wish
i have done this on custom chopper seats as well as the kids drr
be careful and take your time as always
start with 80 grit on a DA sander

i want the shorter seat so that i can get lower in corners. plus im hardly ever sitting down in mx, unless it is in a corner but u arent really on the seat. Im also going to be getting a lowered subframe soon. Pretty much just want it low.

LOWERING THE SUBFRAME WILL BE ENOUGH
