   I didn't paint mine original and I still love it.

			hi Kyle, I had a petrol/tvo fergie before I found the dexta. The seat although old fashioned was more comfy than the dexta seat

			Most anything is more comfortable than the Dexta's original seat. Like having your backside bolted to the differential.   
I made one trip down the field and replaced the original seat. I now have a suspension seat and love it.
