The seat is a Danny Gray.Made for the Yaffe stretched tank. Good fit but it took alot of work to get it to fit just right. The tank in it self took around 10 hours of body work to get it ready for paint.Not straight at all.
Here are a few things to think about. 100.00 to seal tank.I had pro do it a radiator shop.Mud work on tank 10 hours=440.00( I did that work and paint).And then changing out fuel pump 165.00. I did that my self.
So 1000.00 for tank and seat plus 100.00+440.00 +165.00=1705.00!!
Jeesh that seat is nice but that's out of my price range lol. I have a 17x6 on a 200. I like the ride also. Rear tire n rim looks like mines. Skinny tire
