Saddle/seat Cagiva Raptor 650 2001

Post by TiTaNoKg »

Hi everyone, i own a Cagiva Raptor 650 2001.
After i left her, in the garage for the winter season, i found my seat more damaged than before, cuz' some mice decided my seat is food.
I am interested to know, can I find to buy custom seat for Cagiva or make one? Is complicated? What do you guys think?

One more thing, does the frame support a 'sport seat' like new motorcycles which have it like in waves? Like GSX R1000?

I bought a new cover from ebay, some foam from clark rubber and a cheap staple gun. 2 hours later from the dodgy bros inc workshop came this!

I would love to have a go a raising the front seat up an inch or so, but i know i could not get it to look as good as it currently does now!!

Maybe i need another seat to try first!

Any halfway decent upholsterer should be able to sort that for you. :)
