That is Sweeter than over ripe cherries!!
About that seat! I know they are not that expensive. But they are for the Z1's. But are there 2 holes to use for KZ frame latch?
Can I hook it up for a KZ900-KZ1000. without drilling hole and welding nut tabs? I would buy one of them in an instant if I could use for the later 1976-1980 models
Thanks.

z1kz, the seat doesn't have holes in it but you can buy kit, I didn't do it on my last 2 builds, didn't want to take upholstery loose to mount it.

I have one of those seats in my '78. Reused my old latch plate and a couple of riv-nuts/nut-serts and never bothered the upolstery.

Great, Thank's Doug. I figured it could be made easy enough to work! Or the lazy way out is to just not use anything!
Use the ass to hold it down!
