Default Modifying stock SG seat?

I went back to the dealer yesterday for some free grub (BBQ) and got to looking at the Black Cherry SG again. Damn its nice but the biggest thing keeping me away is the seat width and the fact that Im barely falt footing it at rest. IT just feels way to wide for someone with a 30-31" insean at 5'10". Does anyone mofiy the stock seat to take about 1" out of each side narrowing it just in the front where your legs come dawn acrossed it? If I could get that done I think I would finally take the leap (assuming I wouldnt be without a seat for weeks).

About a 3 week wait here. Just had my seat done and my AZZ loves it. He narrowed the front also. Allen does fantastic work at a great price. http://www.meancitycycles.com/
