Well we did it.
:blob3:
I took my Burgman to my sisters and she took foam off from the top and sides to make it fit me better. I can put both feet flat on the ground now and I'm not touching the seat if I stand up. NOW I feel more secure. I'm 5'3"
She did a great job on my seat. You can see the pictures here

Even though she trimmed a lot off the seat you can't tell it. She was able to keep the same shape. And it did not affect the comfort of the seat. she had a tool to measure the thickness of the foam and we went from there. The foam was not cut - it was sanded. I think she took about an inch off the top where it was really thick and took about 1/2 inch off the sides.
She has been doing this kind of work for 20 years.
The back rest is from Utopia and she also recovered it to match my seat. I was only going to be at my sisters for the weekend and Utopia got the back rest to her house on the day they promised. Great folks! She did the diamond tuck design and trimmed it with purple cord. and added a monogram on both sides of Betty Boop.
Next is to get some purple neon lights put on my Burgman. anyone know a company near Atlanta Ga that does this?
