Single Seat / Race Units for the ZXR400
Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2007 9:31 pm
right, a new 'useful' thread, so baz please move to information when this topic quietens down
If anyone knows where to get a single seat unit let it be written here. Had a member ask me about them and where to get them and is a common question.
So, my own information is as follows:
Aftermarket
This is your typical aftermarket race seat unit which can be bought from most race suppliers for about £100 unpainted. A few suppliers:

SP seat units
this was the reason why i started, the seat unit on my ZXR is a genuine SP seat unit from an SP model. Rare as rockinghorse toad it seems, they do come up on ebay every now and then, i paid 120 quid for mine and was in reasonably good condition. You can tell the difference between the genuine SP and aftermarket stuff by looking at where the panels meet up with the tank. The SP unit doesnt quite go upto the frame as can be seen on mine here and the one after:
However the aftermarket ones go right upto the frame, like here:
You can also tell a genuine SP seat unit because it has a bum bad and it comes off with the use of a key
Other seat units
Anyone remember me posting about the ZXR from the USA that was tricked up like no other?

Well the company selling the bike also make seat units for the ZXR here:

Seems i cant copy and paste the url of the pictures so you will have to go on the site, type in 'ZXR400' in the search box and it should bring up a list of parts they do for the ZXR, right at the top should be a list of seat units they do.
Right, ive cheated and managed to get the pics
This next one doesnt seem to be on thier product list so might be worth emailing them about it if you are interested. The two top seat units are $299 each so about 150 quid or so, then you need to paint them.
Theres also this seat unit which you may also be interested in, it belonged to a member who doesnt frequent us anymore (perhaps the 'bling' piss taking that did it *sniggers* )
This thread gives you the contact details, also some pictures of bike with other tail units

Again, if anyone knows anywhere that does alternative seat units or such like, post it here
Cheers people, hope you find this useful!
