851 single seat pads, dimesions/ material etc
 
changing over the seat unit on the beast this week from DS flavour to a genuine single jobby.( http://i12.ebayimg.com/03/i/02/71/86/05_1_b.JPG )

One small hitch, don't have seat pads.
do any of you guys have the dimesions of both pads, and what best material is to use.
best source of said pads material, need to get things sorted before the weekend if possible.


cheers
robin

Are you going for the genuine "vinyl"look or the foam race type Robin?l

Redsps 21-Sep-2004 23:26

I'm thinking foam might look the better option,more like the race type seats, also a lot easier.
but depends on what is involved going down the vinyl route.

sparkin 21-Sep-2004 23:46

My new seat is foam and is more comfortable than the standard vinyl.

Redsps 22-Sep-2004 00:05

what type of foam is that, what are the thicknesses.

foam does look better, especially in " black " , as do wheels;););)

Talk to Tony Brancato @ brancato engineering 01865891203

The "foam" is between 25mm-28mm thick,send him a template in card of what you want exactly and he`ll cut it for you.My seat came back perfect:D but the bum pad is a fraction small,his fualt,not mine:( so he`s doing me another one.......eventually;)


PS don`t care decided on white:P:lol:

Natty, I have a sneaking suspiscion, that this seat unit (I am collecting tonight) belongs to the guy who was pictured in a very popular duke book, and that he owned an 888SPS and an 851SP3.
but won't be sure until later, he may have other nice goodies for sale, you never know.
