A7 seat?
« on: 14.06. 2008 19:16 »
What seat do you think is the most orginal that fits my -60 A7?
If none of them looks like the orginal seat, where can I get one?

I have now the seat in picture I, but I`m wondering if the seat nr. II looks better, or fits better on my A7.

Seat number 1 looks like the same as the one on my '60 A10GF.  See avatar.

Yes, I had the original seat on my  1959 A7SS and it looked like No. 1 although I can't remember if the piping was white.

I think seat 2 is actually the correct seat but unless you are fussy about originality use the one you think looks best. You could contact R K Leightons, they would know for sure. The picture is a A7 from the 1960 US catalogue.      www.rk-leighton.co.uk

It's very very hard to say, my choice would be for the top one. Both my 1961 A10s have different seats and I like them both.
