76c12091520h 3,605 #1 Posted May 16, 2020 Does anyone know what all the different applications were for these seats ? And what is the deciding factor on whether they are red or black or was it just what was available as they went down the line? Thanks guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herder 2,354 #4 Posted May 16, 2020 I have seen them on GT-14's and early 70's C & D series. I can't say I'm a big fan of this style seat and have replaced them. I probably have a few laying around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like the one that's on my C-160, which came off of my GT-14. Not sure if the pans were different between the two models, but even adjusted as far back as it will go, it is still way too far forward. I need to build a set of brackets to space it back some more. I like it fine other than that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I took the springs out and replaced them with pieces of 2" square tubing. Drilled holes in the tubing to set my seat 2" + further back than stock. It's about right for my "not small" self. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 40,913 #10 Posted May 16, 2020 Never been a fan of them. In general didn't like the seat just plopped down on the fender. I've changed all of my seats to spring mounted except for HHHOOOWWWAAARRRDDD!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
