Fat man in a little coat (err buggy)

Long time lurker, first time poster.

Hey all, thanks for any help that can be provided. I have searched, but to no avail.

I have recently decided to take up buggying. After some research, I decided to go with the PL XR+. I put it together this morning with the excitement of a virgin on prom night. As stated on the web site, 19" wide at the side rails. Just right, I slid right in with a few mm to spare on wither side. Then, while sitting in the buggy, i realized that I did not yet have on my harness. Doh! I put it on and not even close. Before anyone says loose weight, I am actually a big man 19" at the hip bones with little to loose in this area.

My question is: Does anyone know of or can direct me to someone who makes wide mod side rails for the XR+?

Thanks,

Darren

Contact Rich @ eastcoastkitesports.com

Ask about the VTT upgrade for the XR+. It makes a world of difference...
Welcome and good luck. Be safe have fun !!

Ditto, Give Van a ring. Or better yet call him. He's already married.

Thank you all for your response. As above, in communication with Rich.

Yeah, considering the waist harness as well,



Thanks
