Seat Conversion

I would like to buy a flat Z1 seat for my KZ1000 LTD. Does anyone know what converts and what does not? Mine is the stepped, king queen type (I think you call it) the stock which, of course, I'll keep, but I'm a bit tall and it bunches me up too close to the tank.
Can you get seats new anymore for 1979's or aftermarket seats? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

AmericanClassix.com sells a cover and foam that you could use to replace your current cover and foam with. Same pan so no swap.

I did this on my seat which had been switched with or converted to an LTD style seat.

If I had to do it again, I would get some nice butt foam to glue on top of their foam, though. It is taking a really long time to break in....

That's a nice price, too!

dd,
it really is.i like the fact that they say all there parts are either made in the usa or japan.
they say NO CHINESE JUNK.

i bought a seat cover from them for my z1r.and plan to buy two more and a seat foam from them as well.

first time you punch it really hard leaving a light with one of those flat ironing board seats youll wish you had that stepped ltd seat back on there! :woohoo:

Thanks guys!

Here's my KZ with a seat I just received from Z1parts.net


Looks great and it came with new hardware to boot!


I had a Corbin Gunfighter on it and it just didn't look right with the stock tailpiece. The flat seat just looks better IMHO.
