Ideas on rear seat?

Post by reallyniceguy »

Nice after market racer seat and unless it is VERY well supported it will crack with any kind of weight on it .
If you wanna ride two up then it has to be stock or a well adapted new tail piece.

i have the same air tech tail and i put a peice of 1/8x1.5 strap on the sub frame allong the inside of the tail where the passenger would sit and it worked without cracking but if you want a seat id say try the r1 passenger seat since the tail is modeled for to r1 i dont know if it would work but with that tail your gonna have to do some work mmight be easier to just swap the subframe
ones life is the way it is only because you allow it make it happen.

I had the airtech myself and recommend selling it for an R6 conversion if you want a 2-up situation. That way it would look nicer and the customizing would be minimal. I personally didn't want any passengers, so I left the airtech on mine.
