Question for everyone especially y'all out there that hit the twisties really hard and/or go to the track. Is there a lower profile seat that allows for better handling? Something along the lines of a SS bike seat? I'm looking for suggestions on a good seat that is less grabby than the stock, because I'm having issues switching from left chick to right chick ;)

Thanks,
Jeremy

Expensive answer find one of the FZ6 race series rear seat units?
Cheap answer polish your seat, I made the mistake of buffing up my seat with some "Flash Dash" is was very slippery but not permanent.
Or on a serious note have a look at your riding style, it may be a case of you trying to do to many things at once.
What I mean is (Quote Niall MacKenzie) Three things happen for you to corner:
1. Corner speed correct.
2. Line correct.
3. Body position correct.

Niall was talking a race car driver through riding a bike fast into corners. He believed that often the bike rider tries to execute all three aspect at once causing the rider to be less smooth.
On the other hand you may be a complete track God so I still can't help you.
As Elm stated Defy would be able to give you some timely pointers.
