Hi Guys and Gals,
I'm a newbie to this group but not to biking. I've got a '82 KZ750 CSR twin that I'm rebuilding. I want to Upgrade the seat, w/a new aftermarket more back support seat. I've found several online but nothing for my specific bike. All around it though. Does anyone know what bikes have the same seat pan as mine or even suggestions on where to by a reasonable custom seat?
Thanks in advance
Ron

Thanks for the reply Max. That is an option,that I am considering. Now I just have to find a local upholstery place that works w/motorcycle seats. The foam is in pretty bad shape also.
