Just checked the Ural online catalog and solo seats were around $100. While
style seat do you use? (LOL - they actually have a model called the "Tractor
Seat") Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I'm 6'2" and sit toward the middle
of the dual seat on my Triumph. I really like the look of the solo seat on
the loop, but didn't want to have my knees in my throat.
Got any photos?
Thanks,
Chris

Came across the rider and passenger seats pretty cheap. Everything from Guzzi seemed cheap and flimsy. Especially for the price. Standing 6'4", the non sprung solo seat seemed to put my knees around the front fender. The Ural seat sits high and gives the legroom I need. I had to make a template out of wood for the plate that the seat bolts to. I then gave this to a pal and had him cut it out of stainless. So, in the end the seat bolts to the plate, the plate bolts to the original mount points on the frame. The added advantage of this was that I was able to drill the holes in the plate to where I wanted the seat mounted. A 1/2 inch either towards the frt or the rr of the bike makes all the difference in the world. With my long spider legs I naturally set it towards the rear of the frame probably about an inch or so. Sucks for someone else riding my machine, but nuts on them. What the hell are they doing riding MY bike!

Dave Lubby's cool 700 has a HD Sportster seat with a modified mount. Any body have any other suggestions for a solo seat? Thanks, Chris
