apex solo seat

Post by Davo » Sat May 15, 2010 10:51 am

I have been looking for a good solo seat, I wanted the one from Apex but has since sold out. I have heard of those that use the Honda CT 90 seat wondering how hard to modify to fit my 69 CA77. the ebay solos look really small. anyone selling their Apex two tone i would be interested thanks for your help.

APEX SOLO SEAT

HEY DAVO,

I bought both of those seats you have mentioned. The CT90 seat.... JUNK.... plastic seat with suction type mounts and it is dead flat. I then found the solo seat at APEX and purchased that one. If you are interested in the CT90 seat let me know.

Solo Seat

This is what I bought and it looks great. The solo on e-bay is way to small. This seat is a beefy 13in. wide.
I had to buy the mounting bracket from the same people that sell the seat on ebay to make the seat work. If I remeber correctly I paid $15 just for the mounting bracket. You are still ahead of the Apex seat price wise and I think look wise as well.. You can also order the pillion, but I opted to show of the sexy lines of the rear fender instead..

Sorry, the link I posted is for the pillion only. If you look around you will also find the seat..

I bought my solo seat from Red Tail Leather on the west coast. They have a website. Chris is really really good. I had him make a custom one with black stitching. It is amazing for the price. Superior quality to every other seat that I have seen. It is $240 and worth every penny. Most seats of this quality are $350 plus. He is making me one out of stingray leather now. I can't wait to get it.
