Bumping this on purpose. I had planned on following Art's mod earlier in the season but I didn't want to risk it and ruin my seat and not be able to ride. Well I ordered a seat off eBay listed as "usable" condition... I was expecting to use that seat to do the modding... got it today... seat is practically brand new, BETTER condition than my current seat... Anyway, just bragging, I'm going to try the mod you did Art, the seat cost me $30 so worst case I'm out $30 plus materials.
