Default Sumo fat tire & Danny Gray saddle

Is there anybody with this combo that can tell me if this is a compatible combination without modding the Danny Gray seat to make it fit?

Most have had to mod their seats wether it be stock, c&c or low and mean. So I would think you would have to make it fit but im sure it can be done.

I AK pretty positive the only seat that will work is stock all others will have to be modified.

I had to do this to my C&C seat to get it on there. Still a good inch gap between the fender and seat.
The only modification you need to make to the stock seat is cutting the sides to fit over the struts. Very simple! As far as I know you will need to do this to all seats. But as far as the DG I don't know. I would guess no, it wont work without a lot of modding.
Kinda like this! You could call DG but you will probably get the same answer I got calling seat vendors..... "I don't know"!

Thanks, I plan on adding the sumo x kit over the winter, and was hoping to get a better saddle ASAP. Based on what you guys are telling me though, I think I'll save my pennies on the seat until after the sumo x, then I'll get a custom seat made to fit.
