i have to tell you that i used a tall seat foam today which came to me used for just £35. it's a husey OEM part and i loooovvveeeddd it 8) 8)
i found myself rolling into corners and instead of losing a little control as i sat, i was in control as i still had my feet working.
i did a lot more feet up corner riding and was able to do laying back cornering when doing twists.
placing my foot down with toes ahead instead of flat track style and always being torn backwards and around. this was like putting a ski pole ahead of you.
although i know a narrower tank is needed (and radiators), i can say that it's easier to keep your foot in and the rider isn't forced to ride 'wedged in'.
why didn't i do this before :x :x :x
