I too bought the Indian Lycett saddle but found it way to big for my taste. So I lowered the frame 1 inch and narrowed the rear 1.5 inches. This gave more support to the covering since the spring suspension now actually spanned the whole seating area and the covering (which was modded also) keeps a nice shape. I also eliminated the big springs opting for rigid mounting with a hinge in the nose.
