Seat lowering modification ?

I find I really love the look of my Lucky Daves seat but I also think I would be happier sitting a bit lower and farther back (they put you up about an inch over stock). Anyone had any good success having their seat professionally modified or am I better off just buying a custom one and selling the LD?

I would like to think that these types of seats are set up really well from the factory.. I am sure a profession seat type person might be able to get you where you want to go but what if they don't..meaning its worse off then stock...If it was me, I would sell it and get what you want,

should have gone with a c&c custom seat! all of their pans start off an inch lower and an inch further back. then from there you can customize it.

Yeah I'm starting to think so. I didn't realise the change of feel I would get with the Lucky Dave's. It's good but a bit more tall bar hooligan and less drag bar racer feel. Taken a while to place it, just not sure it will be the feel I'm looking for in the end.
