GRP seats

Are the comfortable, I have green padded Richfield's not sure the would look OK if I change the bodywork to Kawasaki green. So thinking of changing to black GRP.





Think about it, think about it again and then do it.

5x 3000mile Euro trips and several 500+mile days. Most comfy seats I've sat in on a long drive. In fact the combo of GRP seats and camping on the trips is the only time all year my back doesn't bother me.

They are unbelievably comfortable. I have no padding in mine.

2 trips to the ring and many track days and day trips. I don't even bother with my bench seats.





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Please read my ring story:

I haven't managed to find any of these seats on ebay - in the past there used to be dozens of listings.

Or maybe I'm using the wrong search terms...

Hi Keith, you've seen mine? Bare and comfortable as they were very supportive, and the diffuser made the ride much better as well.

A rear diffuser makes the ride more comfortable? B*gger! Another item on the 'to do' list
