Re: new seats - finally got them both in

you might want to get on to Rogue Mate,

they do custom mounts, like the ones i had made up, they are for side mounted seats but the mounts has a succession of holes drilled into them so rather than having a slide fuction you have to bolt them into the mounts but it offers some adjustability

Re: new seats - finally got them both in

side mounts are the best option for a seat, they are 'easier' to fit in the long run

Re: new seats - finally got them both in

nah you will be fine mate, like i say worst outcome is that you 'could' find yourself sat a bit high. i have to drill 4 new hole (2 either side) into my side mounts so i can sit the seat lower, as i would fit with a helment on too ..

you will have a seat that wont move mind haha :D

Re: new seats - finally got them both in

12mm is err overkill by a big margin haha but fair play too you

you would be best using 4-5mm thick mild steel, i say mild steel as aposed to stainless as its easier to work with

im selling my current setup in favour of a new lighter GRP seat :twisted: 8)
