Default After Market Seat for YFZ 450

I just picked up my 450 this morning. Unbelivable!!!.
Faster then a fart in a wind storm.

Anyway, Does anyone know of any after market seats for the YFZ? The stock seat is a brick. I will get use to it however if there is one out there i would love to check it out.

I sat on one last night at the stealership and then on an 04 Banshee, wow! Although I never heard anyone complain that the Raptor and Banshee seats were too soft, they sure made the seat HARD on the YFZ450. I'll bet you could get something done by a local upholstery place, they usually have different grades of foam and can custom cut it with a hot wire. If you took a seat cover from a Banshee or Raptor or something close in shape, they might be able to cut new foam so you can just order replacement covers in the future.

You could look to the aftermarket seat cover guys, and explain you need a cover for thicker foam, which they easily can make. Then with your seat cover off, lay out a 1" thick slab of foam that's a bit softer than the YFZ concrete seat, and cut it to size to just cover the top. Glue it on with upholstery spray glue. Then staple on your new seat cover. Voila! Looks factory, and gives more tush cush.
