No , but I just had my seat reworked or reupholstered. I took it to a auto-shop upholstery and added 2" to the front elevation and tapered it down to 1/2" in rear. the sides just taper off.
I was shocked to see seat apart. The plastic you see from bottom only had 1/2" thick layer all the way, LxW. No wonder butt hit hard on the bumps.It was not what I had imagined it to be.. On the cheap side I would say. But to take care of slope I added 2" thick foam to front and tapered off to 1/2 in rear. Of course you are raising seat height and it is noticeable but if you can afford to gain seat height it is definitely worth it. I am 5'8" with a 30-31 inseam and no prob. It cost $135 and it may or may not be too costly, especially if you are unsure about keeping scoot. So I am liking it and very pleased with the idea,you may have something you would like more. But, don't think you are going to shave some foam out ,,,there is not enough to shave. Above all choose a reliable upholsterer, be sure to ask when you will get seat back.javascript:void(0);
