Seat comfort and fit in EVO??

I sat in an evo the other day and a few things bothered me which i want to know if other people experienced. I'm 5'7, 200...but most muscle so i'm wide, and short. I sat in the seat and the lower part of the seat seemed to push on my back. I tried raiseing myself like an inch or two and it seemed like it was then comfortable???? it also feld like it didn't really hole me in the seat because of the padding pushing agaist my bacck??? has anyone else experienced this??? is it normal and just had to be worn a little? i don't know, but i'd really appreciate a responce from anyone who has sat in one. Thanks in advance

well im 6-2 280, and I find that my thighs are riding on the bulsters, and that somtimes I get pains in my kidneys from the back of the seat.

O well,,,,,,, plus I feel that if I take a real hard corner and get thrown into the seat, I get the feeling the might let go and bust.

But o well.........
