Seat change for z1000ltd

#1 PostAuthor: Leelofty101 » Fri Jun 23, 2017 4:13 pm

Hi .
I've not had my bike on the road for long and have only done about 40 miles on it. Unfortunately I find the 'K & Q' seat really uncomfortable. Looking on ebay for a standard one they want £150 + £50 p&p for a repro' or £125 for a base unit!!
I'm assuming I could get my seat re foamed with normal seat shape and recovered?? The base unit is the most important surely?
Anybody know where there's a place that's near Aylesbury that could do this?

Thanks

I have a 900 and a 100 both with Ltd seats. From what I know the seat base is the same as standard. So my plan is to use the base with a standard foam and cover.
