How can I tell if my seats been shaved?

I changed the dog bones on mine to raise the rear ride height (aids turn in speed). Well it does that, and it throws you forward giving your junk an unpleasant workout on the tank. So I changed the seat for a viper touring seat. Problem solved. I found the original seat quite uncomfortable anyway. Its too soft for my linking. Touring seats are always harder, and as the hours in them pass, they seem to become more pleasing to the cheeks.
