Where to buy TALL seat foam?

[camrider]

2003 KDX200.
I've searched Rocky mtn., Dennis kirk, Fredette, etc. and have yet to find tall seat foam or complete seat.

I found guts earlier today. I wonder which one (soft, med, firm) is just a bit MORE firm than the stock? I don't know anyone that has the guts foam to compare.

I have "Ceet" brand tall seat and cover on my KDX. I purchased them through Parts Unlimited.

Guts stuff kicks butt, I have one of their seat covers and love it. It's got the perfect balance of traction and manuverability.

No deal through Parts Unlimited, at least not in the '07 catalog.

I need just the opposite for my wife, shorter foam and a cover that matches it. Ideas anybody?

Call the guts ph# and they can tell you which is comparable to stk.I've used them on husky and gas gas and highly recommend them to anyone tall and or lacking natural padding in the seat dept.Good stuff!!!

Sledman, lots of us vertically challenged folks have just shortened the oem seat foam. Look at the old posts, but simply remove the stock seat cover and cut the foam down--many use an electric carving knife. Shape it just the way you want it. It is easy to gain an inch or more. Then replace the stock cover with staples. A manual stapler will work, but an air powered one is easier and faster. Cheers John

I've got the Guts tall seat foam, stock firmness, no complaints.

 

[camrider]

How about a cover? Can I use the original or will I have to purchase a new one?

 

[motorhead434]

If you are cutting the foam down to make a shorter seat then you should not need a cover as you will have ample materiel to staple.If you go with taller foam a cover is needed to have enough materiel to staple into the seat base

I was about to order a tall seat but this thread has got me thinking (dangerous I know). I've reshaped seat foam before so it should be pretty straight forward to add foam and then put on a new cover. My question to anyone out there with a tall seat is how much foam to add to the stocker? I'm assuming it's an inch or two more in the middle at the low spot and tapers towards the tank and to the rear. Can someone enlighten me?

I have the Guts tall/soft and it looks pretty much like you discribed. Have fun, good luck.

is the guts tall soft about the same firmness as the stock? I tried the tall hard and had to send it back,, it was way too stiff. I was just looking for something a little more firm than stock and the medium will work i hope..

 

[camrider]

When I called to ask, I was told the Tall Medium was comparable to the stock KDX firmness. The hard was comparable to a stock MX bike.

 

[hart125]

nope, the medium guts is a bit more firm than stock. just got mine and compared them right next to eachother. guts soft must be pretty close to stock.
