Seat foam, where can I get it?

If you have not mess up the original foam from your SMC you can make that foam softer by drilling holes in it from the bottom. Mark your drill so you don't drill all the way through the seat. Use about a 1/2 inch drill. Also cutting the seat down some can make it wider and it will seem softer cause it spreads your weight more.

I also wear MX boots or 50-50 MX boots so I can stand some while on rides. The look on other riders faces when you ride 5 miles standing up is great. But you need the correct boots or your feet will be sore.

If you already killed your stock seat MX seat foam can be bought from places that sell the covers and other MX parts.
