The wrench that is provided in the tool kit can't turn the right rear shock,because there is not enough room.Do I need to take off the muffler?
Has anyone taken their seat apart and reshaped it in any way? The reason I ask is because I find the seat is destroying my backside,it's like sitting on a cinderblock.
I don't want to buy a new seat.I had a vstrom seat worked on by Spenser Seats in Fla a few years ago and was very pleased with the low price and excellent results. Unfortunately,Spenser will not work on scooter seats.
Can anybody help me with these two issues?
Many Thanks,

I purchased a Used MP3 Seat on Ebay.com for around $75 I think it was.
Sent it to Pirates Upholstery and had them lower it, and rebuild with Waterproof Leather.
It looks exactly like the stock one, but a completely different feel.
These guys do wonderful work. Plus, I still have my original stock seat to put back on if I ever sell the bike.
Since this work was done, I also sent them my GTS Seat and Back Rest for re-work. They can also add a heater to the seat if you want while they have it.
As far as the shock adjustment, I don't have any problems using the tool.
But... I have the LeoVince L4 now, so maybe the stock one gets in the way.
