KZ650 Seat Options

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there were any options other than a Corbin gunfighter for my KZ650. I remember z-power having a nice one but I can't find it on there now.

I've always liked the Guiliari seats.
Hard to find in North America though.
One day I'll have an Upholsterer make a copy.

Yeah those are the ones you used to be able to get from z-power in the UK, but they're not listed anymore. I guess I should contact somebody.

Does a ZRX seat have hinges?

no hinges, just use the seat cover and foam and the 650 seat pan

if you look around, you can find companies that do seat restorations for surprisingly cheap. They can usually do any style you want, as well as whatever custom markings you want on the back. Although i decided to go with stock look, the company that did my seat only wanted $200 and allowed me to choose any color/type of leather i wanted as well as any style, and did it all using my original seat pan.

Cool, yeah, I've been in contact with a local upholsterer. If only they ever get back to me I'll probably get it done there.

These guys make repro seats for almost anything, and said they'd do any style I wanted. So I'm getting a repro Giuliari made as soon as I can afford it.
