A7/10 Seat wanted

[Rex]

I'm guilty of there being one fewer A10 seat in the spares pool...I fitted it to a Panther, and it looked a treat too.

Looking for others to confirm, but rather sure left front is early swingarm type, and others, except left rear, plunger type. Left rear? No guess. Let’s see if the confirmation comes through.

Oops, failed to reference jhg’s post re. auction. Anyway, another thing, no way to know if two on the left are built on original bases. I assume the others are (including the raw base).

Has anybody bought one of the seat bases from India (on ebay)? I'd be interested to know how well they're made and how good the fit is, etc.

Thanks, Steve

Well, I’ve now got 3 seat bases! I’m pretty sure 2 are for A10 swingarm and one I’m not sure about. The seat front bracket is too narrow for the pin.
I’ve also been offered a full seat. Buses comes to mind.

While restoring my 1958 A10, I quickly discovered the seat was in a very poor condition, in particular the seat base which was full of rust holes. RK Leighton (Classic Motorcycle Seats) offered to repair the seat base and supply new foam and seat cover, but I was able to get a new seat from P&P Seating Ltd in the UK via Classic Motorcycle Spares. More details at info@ppseat.co.uk and there is a additional information on the video at www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw2t3Re6CCw where there is mention of their ability to press new seat bases for classic bikes.
Hope this is useful.
Cheers,
