Lowered My 06 Street glide seat.
I'm 6'3" and wanted to sit lower in the cockpit. I pulled the staples out of the front half of the seat and got out an electric bread knife...I started by shaving pieces of foam and when I got the contour I wanted I finished it with an electric drill motor with a circular sand paper attachment.
 \\;
Did a couple of sit checks to get the right height and then stapled the whole thing back together and SHAZAM! I save just saved $300!
 \\;
So I went Daytona today and spent $155 on chrome goodies...I'm still a $145 bucks ahead!
