Agreed if it's got the skinny ones it will feel tight to a lot of people. You can get wider ones from some manufacturers.

cheers for all the replies guys.
it wasn't the seats that was the problem for me, i like tight hugging buckets, it was more the leg room or lack of that was the concern.
Although 6'3" is hardly a giant, i've got pretty long legs.....
I'll have to find someone tall near me with a locost...... any helpers?

I am 6ft 2" and 16 stone (34" waist with a 48" chest) and I fit in my MK Indy ok.....
I need to lower the seat a bit more as my head is on the roll bar with a helmet on, but without it is no problem at all. If there was not a full roll
cage it would be no problem at all!
