    I like my XJ750 Midnight Maxim, however, I don't particularly like the way the seat is cut.
    I find that after a while, under an hour, with my long legs, (6'1") I need to stop and stretch.
    Can I install a Seca like seat. A little flatter and get my a** up a little more so it is more comfortable.
    Or do I just add foam and a new cover to the existing seat to get more height?

    The Seca seat pan is different, as is the frame (the peg to seat distance is shorter on a Maxim). You will need to modify your existing seat, or hunt on Ebay for a used custom seat.
    Alternatively you can fit case savers and highway pegs.
