YZF tank, R1 tail... what seat?
So I have a 02-03 r1 solo tail, and i finally bought a YZF tank off ebay. My question is what seat do I need? R1, R6, what year etc? Are the R1 and R6 seats interchangeable? Eventually I would like to get a r6 tail.

saving up for tank/tail conversion, maybe swingarm too

I don't have an answer for you, but I like those stock colors on your bike.

Thanks The bike is a 96 with 89 front and side fairings, which happen to blend quite nicely imo. I guess I'll go with the 02-03 R1 seat.by Genesis » Thu Jun 11, 2009 5:35 pm

based on some more research
some trimming may be required though

Trimming of what? What setup are most people running seat and tail wise? Also are the r1 and r6 interchangeable ?
