It looks like a bucket seat that's been in a car fire.

I think they look cool as fuck and maybe on a weekend car would be great. But everyday, no way.

need to try one out really they work out about the same price as a magnum shell seat for the one in that pic or you can get an economy version for about £150

they are suprisingly mega comfy...well i think so too.

i was thinking of getting the economy type seats, as do same job near enough, just dpont look as 'bling' lol.

but i bought a pair of new corbeau(spl) buckets and frames off a mate for £60 so until i want to shed abit more wight then they'll do for now.


btw may be of interest...they say in the demon tweeks catalogue that there not for road use. but speaking to MOT tester, as long as bolted in your fine from that side of things

May not be for road use due to hitting a bump and slipping a couple of disks!
