The seat back hits me wrong, I ended up with a sore back every time I took a long ride. My solutions sounds a bit odd but it worked for me. I removed the seat back, flipped it upside down and re-installed it. The middle bolt doesn't hit a hole but I don't think it will matter. The change makes the seat back more upright and it fits me much better.

Yooper.
I too noticed this, but it was mostly when I road with out the seat belt on. Once I put the belt on it would hold me in the seat fairly well. I thought about turning it over and seeing if it felt better. I'lll will see what everyone else says and may try it out.

I will agree but have noticed the more I ride the more my back seems to get used to it. I will keep riding and see what happens may have to try this also.

So, Found out its called a Lumbar seat! Its supposed to save your lower back.

This is from Ask.com. http://ergonomics.about.com/od/car/ss/a ... seat_5.htm
The lumbar support can be a saving grace during long drives, or if you already suffer from back pain. If your car seat does not have an integrated lumbar support you should get an after market one.
Adjust the lumbar support so that the curve of your spine is evenly supported. Make sure not to over do it. You don't want you S-curve being pushed out. Just a nice, gentle, even support.
