Hi,

I have a D-tracker 125cc which most tall farangs take the piss out of.

But if you compare it to the Honda Sonic,a little run around,it's great.

But it is a pain in the ass because of the seat,it's designed thin to help maneuverability,according to

Kawasaki.

Does anyone know how I can improve this situation,i contacted Seat Solutions but they don't do

any for my model.

Does Kawasaki do a custom seat or does anybody else do them.

I have googled but have not found anything.

10 years ago I bought a brand new Kawasaki Boss 175. I took the bike out of the shop and went 50 meters down the road to a hole-in-the-wall type seat refurbishing shop. I asked them to make me a better, taller and wider seat to accommodate my 6' 2" frame. 2 hours later I had a custom made seat and very comfortable too. Total cost including new leather cloth - 350 Baht. Only in Thailand. Got to love this place.

Great,

So are these upholsters general upholsters or specialist motorbike seat upholsterers.

Yes God bless Thailand,they have a simple solution for everything,sometimes it's a beautifully simple solution.some times it's an infuriatingly solution.

But there you go.

A lot of them specialize in motorcycle seats and do amazing work. Just look for the shops with seats hanging out front.
