Is there a way to lower the rear of seat? Mine looks like it could go down about 1/2" to be level with the plastics. I thought maybe some sort of spacers, or washers to lower the lock would work. If any one has a better idea I'm open to suggestions.

I finally figured a way to lower the rear of the seat. I used washers stacked and taped together. You could use some steel tubing cut to size which would be easier, but maybe not as cheap. The 2 stacks are around 10mm thick each. I loosened the lock bolts, removed one and set the stack of washers between the frames lock plate and the lock, reinserted the bolt enough to hold, then did the other side the same way. I could only lower it so far, as the fuel tank is right below the lock. There's not a lot of room under there. It looks better now. Will post pics soon. Before: After:

It came down about 10mm. I would lower it some more, but I'm at the limit of the room available. The only way to get it lower is to lower the fuel tank, and I ain't doin' that.
