Actually the curvature of my stock seat does't match the tank. The mounting pads are in good shape. I even saw adjustable mounts, where the center hole is offset, so you could rotate it for lower or higher than stock height. Raising the front of the seat (with the mounts removed) just has the "side wings" hitting the tank, while the gap remains.
The GS tank/seat junction is different and made for that flexibility. I have a shop, 10 minutes from the house, that makes custom seats. Mostly for Harley's, but he did a wonderful job reshaping and recovering the crowned stock seat on my '92 900SS. I'm going to ask his opinion on this, since I plan to modify the seat, like Lee did, with the gel insert.
