New seats

Morning peeps,
Just thought I'd share a picture of a nearly complete new seat for the Riot :-) haven't really thought about couloirs or padding (2019 worries)...

Nice! I'd have one in my car in a second - expensive?

Have you tried it on for fit with helmet?
The incline on the headrest looks radical..

Howard - not as expensive as you'd expect, and it's custom buit to fit the Riot as it is awkwardly narrow. It's a bit of a prototype and will find out how much a pair will be for all you LCB'ers if anyone is interested.

Angel- I've not sat in it as is yet, however we did a fair bit of modelling to get the correct angle, I think it's just the way the picture has been taken, the headrest isn't flat either, this was to allow for the helmet and the fixing points at the front need welding on which will make the seat 'tilt backwards' more and get the correct rake angle.

Appreciate the comments :-)
Phil

Not stealing...
You just need to pay ransom if you want them to show on third party sites...
