I'm facing a slight seat dilemma, the more I stare at the sr seat the more I want to burn it, just so horrible like who would design such a thing?! Basically I'm looking for a seat a bit like

Thin and just like this, simple plain black, cheap too hopefully, can anyone direct me in the right place?

Don't know how long I can last with the current seat ugh!! I've already had a brief look and can't seem to find much!

Try making your own. Go to a breakers yard pick up some seat leather and some foam, then shape a bit of aluminium or mild steel and away you go

Or even use the existing seat base - Just add some better foam and re-cover it.

There are professional places that re-upholster seats to your requirements. There used to be one round here somewhere... I'll check around.

you would need to shape the rear frame for a seat like that.

You will have to relocated all the electrics, smaller battery and then make a hoop for the rear and get it welded on.

can't do one thing without changing something else I'm afraid.

that actual seat bit is the easiest :)
