I'm getting p|ssed off with the seat height at the moment.

I'm pratically ending up pulling wildlife out of my hair.

The other day the top of my head had a high impact meeting with a bee.

The top of the seat base seems so high in comparison to the floor.

I like the look of the standard seats and dont really fancy spending hundreds of

BC rails are for side mount single piece seats
Completely different mounting points to the OEM sets

Thanks AJ

I might look into hacking a OEM seat rail and welding it shorter then.

Or possibly even look at a side mounting plate for the Buddyclub which underlaps the seat and joins the OEM base? The main factor here would be the difference in width between the OEM and the BC seat.

You missed the point!
It is not the rail that needs modifying!
It the mounting points on hte sea base!
The BC rail is no lower than the OEM
The aftermarket seat simply mounts lower!
There is a DIY route or you cna buy a BYS rail

Search is your friend!

I thought it was the rail that bumped up the height by an inch or so im comparison to the BYS.

I havent had the seats out for a few years
