    Suzuki Seat question

    I ran across this seat on the custom bikes thread and was wondering what it is and where to get it!

      looks to me like it's off a two stroke suzuki.Want to say GT380 but I could be wrong as I'm pulling it out of thin air.

        i agree, its simple, yet looks great. I want one, but haven't been able to find anything else that looks like it...

            I agree on the 2 stroke seat. I'm far from being an expert, however the piping looks right, and the strap and seat pattern are good, but it's missing a "step" or ridge in the side of the saddle at the back that seemed to dominate the 380.

            This reminds me of the seat off a bike a friend of mine and I learned to work on in the early '80s, which could have been a GT250 (maybe a '71).

              You must have been Googling while I was typing...that certainly looks like you've found the seat.

                I would agree with you, GT250/380/550, something of that era, maybe even from a T. As I recall they all had the chrome strip around the bottom and the grab handle.

                  Well, there you go . I should have picked that since I had a couple of Titans

                        It looks like a seat off of a T or GT series.

                          That's *exactly* the sort of seat I'm going hunting for at the wreckers this weekend (providing they're open on Saturdays)...

                            I love the way that seat looks, but I can only focus on the bike's frame rails. Need a little shortening to make that seat work.
