Do they make drag racing seats for 1000's? I have seen them for busas but can't find shit for my k2. I tried cutting mine but I'm no seamstress and can't get the cover to look good the way I want it. Any help, suggestions or links appreciated

Sickest thing ever!!!
Anyone know if you can put a cover on those so it isn't completely smooth? How would one go about adhereing a cover to that without staples??
I just ghettofied a cover on to my cut seat and it will get me around till I get a ledgit one.

Site also sells a foam padding you can cover/upholster
and adhere/staple to seat pan.

This is by far the best looking drag race seat on the market for the '05-06 1K. I hope they decide make it for the '07 1K too. www.gatlinracing.com

Would it be possible to have all of the K7 1K owners/racers here e-mail www.gatlinracing.com to inquire about making this seat available for the 2007 1K? As it stands now, the seat is only available for the '05-'06 and looks far better that the alternative, Catalyst racing seat pan.

I'm pretty sure the 05-06 seat pan from Gatlin will work on the 07.

I found a site that had part numbers for both seats and they were different, however; looking at both seats from the top, they look identical to me. The bottom mounting tabs could be different though. Can someone post pics of the mounting tabs, (bottom of seats) on the '05-'06, and '07 seats for comparison?

Kenny @ Ruthless Racing,

Do you have any pics of your '07 GSXR 1K seat bottom that you could post here for comparison to the Gatlin Racing seat? I also sent you a PM.

Thanks

What part of the '07 seat is actually different then the '06, is it the rear mounting tabs? Are the front mounting tabs the same?
