As some of you may know my trike was rather butchered y the previous owner, my plan is it rebuild it over this coming winter. So far I have purchased a pair of seats and front clam shell from RTR just waiting for time to fit these. Since I have had the seats I decided to have some pads/inserts maid as I liked the ones from RTR but fancied something a little more custom.. What do you think? and they are reversal for a different look when I get board!!

They'll smarten it up a treat along with the new bonnet.

Can't wait to see it looking good again. Thinking of changing chassis from silver to black over winter too

How about a red chasis? Just to be different Nice seats and padding! Is that the wide or narrow version? I believe Sparco and OMP havemounting brackets which might fit on these seats. Worth to have a look at those! Just an other thought... If you brace the seat at shoulder height to the bulkhead tubes you take away the flex of the GRP and have a very sturdy sit for track day use. That's a brainfart from our local MEV distributor br! Erik

I like those, they look great, make sure you mount them so you have a little lift at the front on your legs, your legs need a little lift to stop pins and needles setting in. I mounted mine on the floor at the rear, and up on 2" posts at the front, and I already have padded Cobra bucket seats. Makes a lot of difference on long runs.

Thank you all for the tips and advice. I've had the seat pads done with 18mm foam so hopefully be comftable enough.
The red chassis is something to think about
