Very nice rides fellas. Just quickly the seat on the one with gold forks. Is that a custom job ? What's it like compared to say a Corbin or sargent. Not a massive fan of the stock seat on mine and looking to change.

It is a stock seat I I had re-done by VCM, whilst it works well there some things about the appearance that could be better :roll: . It is covered in real leather, thats works brilliantly. It has extra padding to raise the seat height and increase the seat to peg distance - that works well. Over all it does what I want.

I dont know how it would compare as I havent used a Corbin or Sargent, it did sit one (think it was a Corbin) and it locked you into one position that I wasnt keen on.

It's an aluminium one from ZRXOA. Mine is anodized black and longer than standard to suit flipped eccentrics.

Sidestand is from Jason7019 on the ZRXOA, he also does the superb mirrors and many other parts.

Round headlight mod I am not sure about, from memory there are several that work including the ZR7, some of the guys on the ZRXOA have bigger lights from Suzuki GSX's. I am pretty sure this one wasa purchased from eBay and required stronger globes etc as it was as good as holding up a candle.

Yeah, that was after our garage was flooded. :x I was lucky it stopped just under the crackcase breather, but the bike still had to be stripped and regreased to make sure there was no damage. :cry:
