I need help Identifing this rear seat

Post by Genesis »

I bought it on ebay and the seller swears it is from a 02 r6, which he is wrong. So I am stuck with this until I find out what it is. click on the thumbnail for a big picture.

thats what I thought but the front corners are not as rounded, and I think the attachment on the bottom is different, and the number is different......... IDK I would like to list this, but don't want to list it on ebay as Mystery Yamaha rear seat :ermm:

Get the part number off of it, and try running it on bikebandit.com or some site like that. It might pop up with the year, make, and model of what it's for.
