I am looking for a custom seat made for 2-up riding on my '06 Uly. How do I find someone to make one to our liking? I need my riding area lowered and the Pillion to be slanted a tad toward the tail instead of slanted forward with a more cushioned foam. Who can help with this? All suggestions will be appreciated.

Jonsocal- Here are some sources for custom/modified seats I came up with a few years back. The only one I have experience with is Sargent out of Jacksonville, FL. They do good work the mail though. I'm sure some of the others are closer to you, but I think most will also do work using photos and info from you through the mail.

Bill Mayer Saddles (Rocky) is located in Ojai, Ca. You can schedule a ride in appointment and have a custom seat done in a couple of hours. I did that a few years back with my FZ1 - it was a fantastic seat.

Those are great links. I may look into the Bill Mayer saddles in Ojai. I'll be calling there today to get some ideas on pricing and such. (I have some crazy ideas as to how I am going to customize my bike for comfort, performance and appearance.) I'll post pictures once it is completed.
