Pit replica seat cover
Hi all, and happy new year. I thought i would share my experience of pit replica seat covers, superb service and fast delivery from TC. I bought this 78 gs1000 seat on the bay to refurb. After a blast and a bit of welding a coat of black paint and the new cover i think it looks great. What do you guys think? Im having trouble uploading more than one pic, oops.My bikes 79 GS1000 1085 checked and approved by stator the GSR mascot :eagerness: and 77 GS750 with 850 top end, GS850g, and my eldest sons 78 GS550, youngest sons GS125.

Yup, that's a brand new seat. Well done, gotta love pit replica. Usual BC weather, damp and over cast, not the best riding conditions but there's a bunch still getting out.Rob

Thanks for that. I have owned it since 1999 and over the years have stripped it all down even the engine and gearbox. it has a 1085 wisco kit and i cleaned the ports a bit, and jetted up the carbs. Question what do you think of the air filter?. Look hard before you answer.My bikes 79 GS1000 1085 checked and approved by stator the GSR mascot :eagerness: and 77 GS750 with 850 top end, GS850g, and my eldest sons 78 GS550, youngest sons GS125.

Now thats a very very nice gs1000 too!. You hit the nail square on the head with the answer to my puzzler. It is a G air filter, i could not get the correct one so i cut the front out, welded in tubes and made rubber sleeves then pushed the air box onto the carbs. I now have a plastic box i made which drops in where the original filter should be. Handy storage space. I cant wait to fit my new seat yours looks fantastic!.My bikes 79 GS1000 1085 checked and approved by stator the GSR mascot :eagerness: and 77 GS750 with 850 top end, GS850g, and my eldest sons 78 GS550, youngest sons GS125.
