  I would tell you what it cost but then GreenBarn would have to jump off the roof............but I asked a friend for a pay back on a favour I did him a while back, and then I took the results to Ken because he is in the mist of building a 69 Sporty to a military look. I'll pm you the details if you want to know but I want to protect my buddy GreenBarn from any issues........

   Ok so my seat was delivered to me the other day, today I was able to get it on the frame, and then on to the bike. Understanding the bike is on a jack and off the ground, so I did sit on it for a few mins. Can feel the difference and WOW.
So went to a guy here local who is very well known for his custom work, and for the work he does on automotive seats, boat, snow machine, and bikes. He started doing with his dad when he was like 10 years old, and this is all he does now. I first went to see him in the fall and let him see the bike and let him think over what I was after.
Picture one is the one I printed out for him to look over and think of what I was after and then go from there. During our chat I made mention of reading and seeing pictures of guys who had added gel inserts to their seats, and it made it sound like breast augmentation as did a few of the pictures. due to medical issues I was not able to go out and get pictures as I wanted to of the actual construction) He said he had pictures and would send them to me.
However he saved all the original foam and seat cover, they are in a box now in the shed. He also made a spare cover in case anyone needs one.
now he told me he left the passenger area pretty much alone, the area behind my back is made of extra firm memory foam, and I notice it moved my spine forward and into a more upright seating position till I got comfortable with it.
The driver seating area was a 1/4" foam and then 1/4" gel pad, and then 1/2" memory foam that was sculpted to make my butt imprint better. then finished with a 1/4" memory foam.
Now to take it off the jack and see how it feels and then try it this summer on a few long trips and see if the numb bum is gone........
