TR750 seat

Post by tz375 »

I need a long version of a TR750 seat for a "cafe Racer" Regular TR750/XRT11 is a little on the short side for this application.

Anyone know who makes one?

Thanks guys. That Airtech seat is designed to work with a much longer tank than I plan on using and that means I need to stretch the seat base. I'm not sure why, but I am not wild about taking a $150 seat and then modifying it to make it work. That's probably why I usually beg borrow or steal used and abused seats to modify. In this case, I'd consider that Airtech seat if they can make it longer for me at little or no additional cost.

How about Sakis Vasilopoulos? He's been mentioned a lot on 2SW Forum....mainly for Yamaha, so I'm not sure he does Suzuki but his work is highly recommended.

i have a freebie seat you could have but it was bought for a GT750 with drag racing in mind. It Beasley Composite and it would need some work. I could send a pic if interested but it fits with a stock tank and is definitely stretched. Basically out of the box. No hole drilled...no paint or primer.

Roy, Thanks. I had forgotten about Sakis.

Kevin,
Thanks. I'd love to see what it looks like and see if it might work with the modified GS11E tank I'm using.
