Finished Saddle Mod and re-cover

De-humped, and sculpted with a mini finger belt sander from Amazon. You can see the rounded contour that I shaped on the last large rib. Also built the front hump up about 1-1.5 inches so I no longer slide off the front under hard braking. The difference is amazing. The ride quality is vastly improved from moving my weight 2 to 3 inches back and I can use the entire Foot board at will now. FWIW, I am 5' 11" (180cm)

It really looks good! I love my seat, but I had to send for it from Thailand. Nice going. I hope your rides are much more comfortable now. The seat makes all the difference in your ride.
