Seats

[trackerjack]

Hi folks I live 10 miles north of Portsmouth (somebody has to!)and wish to buy some seats but have had trouble finding some that suit my build (I am not quite a stick insect).

Does anyone on here have either of these seats fitted and if yes can you tell me how good they are and even better would a 6 ft 36" waisted fellow such as I fit them?

I've got the first ones. They're available from a few different sources so worth checking for the best deal. Base mount means no messing around with brackets. They're a good fit for me but not a squeeze (34" waist) and I've had passengers in a lot bigger than me. They'll be nice and snug at 36". I've done a lot of long trips in mine and they're suprisingly compfy; Several 500mile days with just simple pads made from camping mat and my bad back is better than when in my tin-top.

The second won't hold you as well and the padded seats do tend to put you closer to the wheel so if leg space is at a premium they'd not be the best.

Try Triton seats. They have a good reputation and I think they're in the south-west...

When buying seats I recommend you sit in one before purchase. Just because someone else finds it fine doesn't mean it will work for you.

I have two of the Odessey seats and sliders available if you like and i live in gosport so not too far away for you.

ive got those grp ones, good seats for the money,easy to fit, surprisingly comftable.

but don't expect them to have a perfect finish, mine had a few scratches/lumps, and the finish seems very thin.

but can't complain for the money.

Thanks lads and Nedharding for the offer but they do not seem right for what I am building.
I have much to do and will continue searching.
