Came across this pic while surfing with no "source" info and wondered if anyone recognises the bike. Looks quite tidy...

Very nice ! It would be nice to know where those seats are made, or is it a single custom specimen ? :-) I guess a similar look can be acomplished by using a plastic cover like this : By the way, any of you have tried one of these seats ? They cost about £200 new and seem to be quality made ...

The seats in cyphron's post look very smart indeed and also probably very comfortable. And I also like the single seat in buckiemick's post, but apart from better looks, it has no further purpose. If the owner of the bike was after better looks, then why are his panels in 3 different colours I agree with McF that we should keep this a secret from RJ2para; he will go nuts if he sees this. GvS PS Here's a link to cyphron's site: www.topsellerie.nl/HONDA-NTV-650-zadels-tankbeschermers-tassen-motorfiets_5_273.html

Cyphron, get thee behind me Satan! The site for those seats has been bookmarked for retrieval at a later date when I've tucked away a couple of hundred smackers without the wife noticing .......
Mined ewe, it's my birthday next month, I wonder ..... ?

for those interested stuff the extra cash down the sofa OR send it to my as my 'introduction' fee but tony archer does VERY similar..NOT the same as CORBINS..no way but really SIMILAR... and the cost is in the region of £60 +PnP...... well worth a call..very nice chap on the phone. know many who have had work done by him who are gobsmacked at the quality V cost. www.tonyarcher.co.uk/

That's very smart and an excellent price - I paid £35 to have a plain cover fitted to my aNTy.
RJ - I won't even suggest you "look away", I'd actually say "Rush out to Tony Archer and get your seat done, take some piccys and tell us how wonderful he is" ;D

I am also looking for a new seat, because mine has the right tooth broken causing it not to be perfectly locked in his place... I've been looking to those at www.topsellerie.nl and haven't found cheaper alternatives yet. A new seat from Honda is very expensive ... Maybe Tony Archer can manage to get me a new one with both locking tooths and new leather cover design :-) I think I will email him, hoping he can ship the item to my country ... Thanks
