Hi.. Following on from the other Giuliari seat thread and while sorting the tail and panel fitment on my Project i trail fitted my New Seat.. On first inspection when i got the seat it looked really great but when it came to fitting the seat to my bike i seem to have some issues, so would like to ask some advice.. First off the seat rear end (YAMAHA) seems to have a double hump rather than being one curve or flat is this normal? All other images i have seen have the rear end flat..  IMG_2079 by mark.morgan07, on Flickr The sides seem to taper in and rub on the rear cowl (light housing)  IMG_2075 by mark.morgan07, on Flickr  IMG_2082 by mark.morgan07, on Flickr I have spoken with P&K who said this is how the originals were. |

They never seem to get that back bit right
Is it the shape of the foam or how the cover is made ?

My 'NOS with new cover' seat has a flat back like Dave showed as well.
I agree with Martin, copies always tend to have the back bit wrong somehow.

All the copies seem to have 'fat arse' syndrome, and seem to bulge in the wrong places, surprised at the new ones having a problem, I wondered if it was too much, or too squashy foam. It was mainly the converted ones that looked wrong in my opinion.

The Rear Dont Look Right To Me Original Below Dave . +1 Jonw, +1 me. My genuine Guiliari (with replacement cover) looks exactly the same as Dave’s (albeit black, which was the reason for replacement, as mine was white originally too). I can understand the modified standard seat bases looking like this as the angle is different, but not a bespokely made one? These look good IMO, but no good for pillion riding. You really need to keep a standard seat for that. Jon |
