    does anyone know of another seat that will work

    does anyone know of another seat that will work on a first gen 250R (like a 200x of newer 250R seat)? My seat pan is toast.

    I had a 84 200x seat and fenders on my 83 R when i was a kid. The fenders dont line up good with the tank but the seat was fine.
    The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it.

    Someone posted a members site a few weeks ago who made reproduction seats. Have a search around. I would buy the new one. Its easier than making something fit that dont. I tried a 85 200x on my 81r and it was ugly as sin fit.

    This guy was out of Australia and the shipping made it practically unfeasible for us.

    Ah. I still think I would buy one from him. I paid alot for my pan and still had to fix certain areas. I live in Canada so I am use to expensive shipping aswell. Perhaps if a few people bought them the shipping combined wouldnt hurt as much.
    Just an idea.

    They haven't made a trike in 25 plus years, WTF do you expect to pay for a seat pan??

    Choose another sport (anyone that doesn't like prices) or suck it up; Nothing more we can do...........

    The newer R seat is definitely on your machine. Rocking? Far from it...

    I found a seat pan for $35. It needs to be sandblasted and painted it but i have seen people try to sell them for $200 so i think i did quite well.

    Yes man you did good. Lay a bit of cloth on it. Resin it up. I usually use marine gel for fibreglassing. Go thin with the coats and your seat will last you a life time.
