got my roc city interceptor seat

[ClintonX]

and it looks HUGE on my 360. the seat is awesome and is very well made and I couldn't be happier with roc city, but it just looks a little big on my bike is all. now I'm kind of at a stand still, do I try and mount the seat even though I'm not totally happy with the overall look, or should I try and sell it and get a seat I'm happy with the look?

Too long or too wide?

In the future I'd suggest making a cardboard mockup of a seat you're thinking about purchasing and test fitting it on the bike.

well I was gonna cut a little off the front to make it shorter. but the hump is just too big

Sell it, and find a seat that you like more.

No point in trying to jam a square peg into a round hole.

I ordered one of their Daytona seats for my SR250 without measuring and had to cut about 2 inches out of the center, but I went through the same debate. There are too many bikes around where the owner just threw the first seat they could find on it to pass the bike off as a cafe racer and they look like shit. You might as well get a well-proportioned seat that will look right and make you happy, man.

yeah I feel ya, I don't wanna feel obligated to use it. it's decided, look for it to go up in the 'selling' section

cut and used one on a 350 last year

shortened it and cut down the lip

try trimming the bottom, i made that seat with a tall skirt to work with more bikes, you should be able to knock an inch off without affecting the fit for the 360

Check my build thread.
I have the same seat, you can see how much I cut off.
It is a big hump, but works great if you're putting a battery in back.
