Im after a drag seat for a 2013 zx14r or a second hand stock one I can cut and repack. my version is euro so I have a grab handle unlike the American versions but the oem seat is the same. So an aftermarket drag seat the doesn't click on wont work.

Two pages in and no one has commented on 'private parts'? I don't even know this website any more.

Cool project though - and something like this has been on my mind recently. Will bookmark the thread.

So for the used factory option, will a US model factory seat until work for you to modify? Norm.

Yes but a custom made aftermarket glass drag tail wouldn't.
The seat is the same but euro has a grab rail and US has a flat panel instead.

I want one of these but for 2012-2013 model. Im going to cut most of the foam out of the front seat then recover it after. Will need be affordable as its only going to get used a few times a year. Its possible the earlier seats also fit but I haven't researched it at all yet.

Ill call tomorrow after work if im home early enough.

What year is the bike? Early ones are pretty impossible to get them for, but are available for later models. Thanks, Norm.

Best bet would be contact Dold Industries at www.dold.co.nz and see what they have. I think they stock the different uprights and will make up the specific L bracket for the GSF250 mounting. I'd give them a call to verify it is all available. Good luck. Thanks, Norm.
