Massive thanks to Tallpaul for taking my spare seat (purchased from User650) collecting it from him and dropping it off at Tony Archer for me.
Hopefully I'll be riding on a comfy seat very soon.

It's about time. I'm not sure you need one, it's not as though you ever travel any further than the confines of the M25 is it?

Did you pay User650 in chipshop gift vouchers?

I know ... perhaps I should attend more ride outs to put some mileage on the bike.

Apparently the agreement with user650 is that I must go to Whitby for Fish and chips every weekend with him for the next ten years so he can stamp his card

Hmm... Whitby and chips...

Am sure Tony will do a fine job for your derriere

Did someone mention fish and chips?

No worries about the seat, mate! Always happy to help.

In the market for seat myself so keen to see what you think of this

Has he removed the slope that inexorably pushes the plums into the tank after a few hours?

Holmsey · « **Reply #9 on:** May 26, 2016, 19:18:45 »

Seat has arrived and I'm over the moon with it...
Having trouble posting pics from my phone but I'll get some on tomorrow

Holmsey · « **Reply #10 on:** May 26, 2016, 19:20:41 »

The last one is obviously the original seat.

More padding than the last one Tony did for me......

Looks all day comfy, that one Holmsey.

Holmsey · « **Reply #12 on:** May 26, 2016, 19:32:34 »

The amount of miles I do on the Yorkshire rides. .. I need it.

That looks great, I'm going to call him tomorrow to see if he can do mine.

Is that a Hardly Fukkin Movinson?

Rusty Nuts · « **Reply #15 on:** May 26, 2016, 20:30:45 »

Nope. But it was built in California.

How much £80 still? Is the pillion seat smaller? I might get mine sent in while I'm in Italy

I thought the pillion looked shorter.

Holmsey · « **Reply #18 on:** May 27, 2016, 04:27:21 »

It was £80 (Bargain) .... The pillion seat is smaller which is what I requested, it allows me to shift back a bit to straighten my legs.

TLPower · « **Reply #19 on:** May 27, 2016, 05:49:25 »

That looks the business. Enjoy.

We're all craftsmen in Yorkshire it seems.
