On mine I have this 1000 mile solo seat from a BMW cop bike (and boy was
he
pissed to find his seat missing!) It's basically a leather covered tractor
seat. No padding, but butt-shaped so well, that you don't notice. I'm 6'5"
and I mounted it on springs and a 3" front bracket. Awkward as hell for
short folk. But then I don't care about short folk. It's my damn bike.
If you can find one of those 1000 mile bmw seats, snag it.

Yeh, If I had scenery like that, I'd be getting wet also.
Naw, When I was restoring the bike, I wanted to go with the solo. My |
| | got the solid mount from Harpers w/ the rack, ect.. I rode with that seat
for a season before the restoration. It was a good seat but not for me.
Being 6'4" I needed more leg room. Rick from MG sent me a sprung solo |
| | repop), but said he was a tall guy also and I might not like that one
either. I got the seat and it just didn't seem wroth the money. I wanted
something metal framed & durable. Moto Guzzi wasn't going to give it to |
| | I looked for an old leather tractor seat to adapt. no luck.
Stopped by a local Triumph dealer. Small shop, not a big dealership.
Paul(owner) used to sell Urals and happened to have a ural driver solo |
| | the buddy solo. I walked out with both. Couldn't use the buddy solo(which |
| | is
really cool), but I was able to mount the regular one, through a little
engineering.
Couldn't be happier with the setup, since I was setting up the seat |
| | scratch. I was able to set it where it was comfortable to me and my long
legs. Plus it has a really high seat height, looks cool, rides cool( |
| | like something from the 40's)
But the seat sets up above the frame rails. So gotta figure something
out....
You'll be able to see it when I finally get the photo's to dave.

Well, truth is it was my own fault for not making it.
I was close to home and decided it might be neat to go to this scenic
overlook and see the whitecaps on the river.
Without the detour, I would probably have rolled ito the garage just |
| | the rain, but shoot, it was fun all the way.!!
Just wondering about your seat. Dont the tops of the side covers cover
the
reg???

Allmost made it, huh? I need to work something out with the rain. My |
| | does not cover the regulator like moto guzzi seats do. I haven't been
totally soaked yet, but it's just a matter of time.
