Anybody recommend a shop that can either make me a new seat (I need it lower but the passenger still high) or adjust the standard seat?

Cheers.

This guy does great seats. I think I was the second customer there. At first
he refused to do the seat on my Africa Twin, as the first farang before me with a big bike had complained and the seat had to be redone several times. So he had decided no more farang customer. I had to beg and talk him into it, explaining that the trick was to trim the foam to the right shape, have the customer test ride it , and only then sew the cover for it if the customer was satisfied with the shape of it. Now he is Mr. Big Bike seat for Chiang Mai. Kudos to him, he is a real craftsman.
