I have a Sundowner on my bike but I would like to either add to or replace the padding in the stock seat. I like the looks of the stock seat better. Has anyone here done that and what type of foam or padding did you use.
I would love to know how to do it myself as well but really have no clue on that but Mean City Cycles doesreshaping for about $40 plus shipping some memeory foam modification for about $90 and I have heard some good reviews abvout their work so far. They are not far from me and one day hope to drop by their shop. http://www.meancitycycles.com/
i just had my stock seat repadded.. actually he added about a 1.5" layer of a black memory foam on it.. it is NIGHT & DAY vs the stock cushion. the foam itself feels hard, but it is great so far on the assbone.
im not sure what its called, but its black and about 1.5" thick and he said it was a medium-soft cushion... cost me $60 too.. i would def recommend finding someone local who does seats on the side, like the guy that did mine. ill try to find out the name of the cushion in the next day or so
I went to the local upholsterer and she added about 1/4 inch of foam and cut the back by about an inch 1 1/2 so I could strech out. She charged me ten dollars, but it took her 3 weeks , but it was over the winter.
