Is the Ultimate seat narrower at the front?

Hi, is the 2021 Can-Am Spyder RT Ultimate Seat thinner at the front where it meets the tank compared to the stock seat please?
I feel like my legs are being pushed apart quite a lot and this causes hip pain after about 30 minutes. I also ride 2 wheels with obviously a thinner ‘tank’ and don’t get any hip pain at all, Thanks in advance.

I raised my floorboards to help alleviate that situation. Good luck.

I had a 2021 RT LTD and now have a 2026 Sea to Sky. The 2026 S2S seat is a vast improvement, but I cannot say that it is any different in dimensions across the front. The crown of the seat is higher as the padding is thicker, but I don't really notice any real difference in how the bike feels width wise. I think it's down to the width of the dummy tank if anything. Go to a dealer and sit on a S2S and that should give you an idea if that's more to your liking, as I suspect the S2S seat and the Ultimate Seat are very similar. The only thing I can think of that might otherwise help is to fit a set of heli-bars and sit further back to let your knees come closer together.
