yes it will be getting a normal fibre glass seat for racing,the carbon seat was specially made by speedfiber in spain 8-) for a price of course,but we dont mention that :whistle: its the same company that supplies the gp teams though,thats how i justify it :lol:

through ian emberton,he's the uk speedfiber agent and all round good egg :grin: it came about by a normal conversation as i was getting the speedfiber fairing/screen and seat off him.he mentioned carbon and i started rubbing my hands :lol: the carbon seats usually come coated and ready for paint,i said theres no point having a carbon seat if you cant see the carbon :roll: he agreed and rung them and they said making it would be no trouble as thats what they sent the hrc teams for pr season 8-) i ordered it there and then,the quality is amazing,i wanted to hang it on the wall instead of putting it on the bike :lol:

yes theres probably a few knocking around the race team garages,i nearly got me hands on a proper burning blood carbon seat a while ago,but the bloke was being a proper nob on getting a realistic price :down: but i may have tracked down another :grin:
