Understood. What I meant was that I don't want him creating a support on the frame above the battery to keep the seat from dipping into the cavity since I'm dumping the stock seat anyway.
How does the MoCo fix this? replace the seat with a longer tongue or strengthen the pan... my guys fix is to support the wimp pan by making a support on the frame to keep it from dipping.
Yours may be different from mine but on mine that will not fix it. The seat only just touches the tip of the console at best. There is no overlap of the chrome console. Both my other seats overlap the console by 1.5 to 2 inches.
Personally I think the "give" is what makes this seat more comfortable. your dealers proposed "fix" does not address the seat and will likely make the seat uncomfortably stiffer. Changing the bike to fit the seat is a kind of backwards approach.
IF they made the seat 2" longer at the nose problem solved.
I do not plan on using this seat either but i want it made right on principle. Also for the next owner whenever that is.
