Default Desert seat

Who makes a desert seat for the DS. I searched past posts and lots of mention on seat covers but couldn’t find anything on extra thick foam seats for desert racing.

Thanks

I want one too.

I don't like how the stock seat is so concaved in the center. Makes it hard to ride on the back of the seat to keep the front end light for riding the whoops.

Very true....

I have a CEET cover, made specifically for my DS. But I took my seat to them and said "okay... now this is what I want ..." And they did it in a week, for $100.

My buddy JUST got his done for his Bomb (after calling, and then stopping by the vacant CEET facility - we think it's out of business?!?!) from Hi-Flight.... he loves it. I haven't see it yet though.

I LOVE MINE... it takes that "Sway back horse" feeling out of the seat.... and makes long rides seem short. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

However... be prepared for the higher center of gravity. My quad is like driving a truck... and I mean, a truck with a cab-over camper... it will sway pretty good. I simply got used to it and learned how to ride it again... within minutes you get used to it. Some 'hill racers' would hate it. It's not there for anything but comfort and such. Lastly... it'll lower the handlebars on ya... it makes standing seem a bit more awkward if you've got stock bars.

Jet Trim makes a very nice seat, I have one for my yfz, the blue/silver/black one on their website and I got the choice of adding 1" of foam.
