NC750X Seat slope adjustment
How to adjust the annoying seat slope that NC750x (-2019) has that even with an upgraded Shad seat the comfort was not optimal.
Using a metal plate shaped in the correct size and with some chair rubber bumps we can fix this problem.
Although not filmed, is important to extend the rubber pads of the seat and this was done with chair rubber bases also bought at local shop
All available at a closest hardware shop and with a little of effort

I did this with the stock seat on my 2017 model. I didn't bother to build the new receptacle. I am heavy and discovered I was crushing the extended rubbers, they had started to bend in the middle. So check them out after a while. It does make the seat more comfortable without the slope. I since bought a Shad and I can live with the slope as the Shad is so comfortable.
FYI like the video I have a Shad seat however I wouldn't recommend placing the front tongue if of the Shad seat up above the original bracket without adding bumpers of the same lifting height to the original bumpers. I rode like that for a few days without bumper risers and that tongue broke off.
Very nice, great video
I bought a brand new 2020 model and the slope is still there! Thanks for the video! I'm not that handy but will try it ;-) What kind of rubbers did you use?

Even in the 2020?... Seems that Honda does not listen to their customers. You really don't need to be that handy. Buy an aluminum plate (instead of iron or steel) as is very easy to bend and super light. The rubber pads are like these. images.app.goo.gl/aJrVcS7sDZwVmYJw9 they sit and fit on top of the original seat pads.
Great video. May I ask: what was the thickness and width of the aluminium strip that you used?

I think 2.5cms width and 2mm of thickness.
Can you feel a difference in seat height here? I'm 1,94cm so a bit higher seat height would be nice
It’s vital to extend the front seat base rubber feet as they take the weight of the rider,failure to do this will result in the front plastic tongue breaking off!

Thanks for the update Pedro 👍
how many cm did you raise the slope?? And you have a Shad seat, would the stock 1 be better too if the slope was adjusted?

It was raised by around 2 to 3 cms and the improvement in comfort also applies to the stock seat
Where is the person that OK'ed the seat slope in the first place?? must have an interest in the aftermarket seat industry I guess.
I have to do this if the NC750X is anything like the NC700X I have now. How high was the seat raised?

Not a lot. The raise was only on the front by aprox 2cms.
Still a shame the seat does not fit properly. It seems to be a problem of every home constructed solution. So practically it works but it just does not look good. Do not mis understand me. I also go for the practical solutions but sometimes I just do not like them. So try again please.

Video is okay.. the music is HORRIBLE...!!!
Where is the diagram with measurements of how you bent the aluminum? Where is the drill size that you used to drill the mounting holes? Where is the closeup of the spacers (bump stops) that you used? Where is the list of sourcing for all the parts you used? This video doesn't help the non-technical owner of an NC very much. Here's where to get your own material without cutting aluminum: nc700-forum.com/threads/seat-slope-mod-by-smalllabtinyfab.20251/post-246509 And here's where to get the bump stops that go under the seat: www.homedepot.ca/product/everbilt-7-8-inch-black-rubber-leg-tips-4-per-pack-/1000100144
