Fjbj40 Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Thanks man! I have the tail piece covered in carbon currently. I may build a 100% carbon tail section this winter. I would like to make a mold of the original 1000 tank to build new ones of carbon and Kevlar. I may start the GS revision this winter, will start a thread on it. Quote
Cheeky4648 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Posted November 19, 2017 Ok. The ferkin upholstery guy has done a moonlight!!!!!! Leaving me with no seat. Soooooo rummaged through the local breakers and found this seat. Is it a start for modifying? Or keep looking? Its the right width at the front but the back will need some work. Opinions welcome, good or bad or @Fjbj40can just give me his seat Quote
nlovien Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 the local bike shop now run by couple of young lads from Poland - proper oldschool bike nuts - anyway they are building contacts with guys in Poland - one of which is an upholster - they have done aprox half dozen one off seats with him - i'll post up a few pics next time im in past - wouldn't be typing this if I didn't think the workmanship was good - it is!!!! very good - they are still finding their feet with respect to prices etc.. but what has been suggested I consider very good value ( and I am a tight arsed Scot.) if your interested ( and i'm sure they would be - get noticed on here etc.. - may work in your favour) - pm me and i'll link you up - nothing to do with me i.e. this is not a sales punt - genuinly wish to see these guys work their business - and as said - the quality is top notch Quote

It's another one of those" if I had time I would replicate it" thingys! Oh, no you can't have it! 1 Quote
Cheeky4648 Posted November 21, 2017 Author Posted November 21, 2017 Would be good to do some copys. Rare seat that is. Went for a ride with the seat tie wrapped to the frame. Feels good so think ill use it and mod it to fit. Quote
