compare to an old  M seat or IJ, i'm not sure.


















anti but slip




 all that we've seen for the first time in 2008, the Meeting of Socialiste and the Communist -7 SCARI-Brasov, and although I have not breathed a Word then NEITHER,and here we are again!
 it started like this: "I need a solo tractor  seat for an MT11 "
tractor seat.hahaa!
a million $ dude ,with large eciclopedic knowledge (I will stay more besides him, I'm sure that I will learn plenty of moto history).
the saddle  Pan  is hand-crafted,from sheet metal formed by hand beating , the T frame  that will ensure preservation of form and attach to the frame, executed from strips made of steel 30 x 5, 5 mm and TIG welding( I love'n  it!).
thanks for trusting me,and  as  I always, I hope to  not disappoint.

  2. thank's Chris!
    1.5 mm steel sheet. the pan shape was formed cold manual hammered and curved quite well(helps a lot). Myself I trying to intentionally deformed whit my 97 kg fat ass, however it kept well. with the T frame I insisted to reinforce the area where the curves are larger, to hold it in place.....if will be the case.
