Anal advice...

#1 PostAuthor: damien.wrl » Wed Jan 02, 2019 6:32 pm

Happy new year everyone , sorry this isn’t going to be what you thought .. looking to buy a pattern seat cover, after the z900-1000 cover with the “sausages” down each side, hope that makes sense... anal question what sort of detail is featured in the grooves? Several manufacturers and several infills varying from none to blocks and a rope pattern .. anyone photo an original cover please??

Sausages down the sides of the seat, with grooves. Do you mean like the one below ? This is identical to the one in the Dave Marsden book Original Kawasaki Z1, Z900 & KZ900

The title of this post was very correct... and quite anal. Something I would have never noticed until now. Thanks for that! :mrgreen:

Thanks everyone, messy old business but we got to the bottom of my anal question...I even got a bit of useful terminology from you it would appear to be a “faux stitching”pattern I am after ... thanks again
