Anybody using one of this guys seats on a racer/rider,I have a XR75 one from him & it is well made but will be fitted to a garage queen,
 I want to know how they stack up to real world use, ie foam too hard or soft,or if they fall to bits after use etc :)

Hi Smed,
I am pretty sure a second hand seat I bought for my CR250RZ is one of these, the underneath is a black plastic whick looks to be made of recycled material. It is still going strong and seems fine after a years racing.

Thanks KJ,These seats have a metal base unlike the stock plastic one,yours may be made by someone else.

Anybody got a good seat ready to go or base & brackets that I can refoam & recover? To suit 78-80 Honda CR250R
