I'm thinking of adding a cushion and some foot pegs somewhere?

Based on my experiences with kid seats I'd say you don't want to do it. As our kids got older and heavier, balance, handling, and safety got worse.
It works for the big dummy because the extra weight is positioned between the wheels, not on top of or behind the rear axle.
