    Need opinions

    Okay guys I was working on building my own tail section for my GS450E. Unfortunately it didn't turn out quite like I hoped. Now I'm thinking of going with a Roc City seat and tail instead. I've been looking at the Roadster seat but wanted to get other opinions before I commit. Anyway here is the link to the seat. Input welcome.

      Hmmmm if I was still cafe'ing my 450E I'd have a tough choice there, both are nice lines for the 450 tank.

      I think I would lean towards the second though... not sure why.

        I was thinking the same thing. I think it's the flat end on it that would go with the E tank. The first one I thought might be good because of the flair at the front where it meets the tank. My wife said to pick one out and she would get it for me as an anniversary present!

            Second one..
            The first one has too much slope in the seat section and the hump is too football'ish looking.
            Most of those seats are thin and need reinforced with a few exta layers to make em stronger.
            Also I might suggest ya get one thats a bit longer than you think you may need and cut it to your desired length.
            I wanted the seat and tank to be about the length and the slope on the rear of the seat to match the slope on the rear of the tank.

              I myself like the first one.

              But for my winter project I bought the Composite Fastback race seat. The dimensions on it are perfect for a GS750 I also have the Spitfire headlight bucket waiting.
