It is with great sadness that I post my beautiful seats up for sale. I have only used them for 1500 miles/1 short season. I have lower back and hip issues and really need to get a mustang or ultimate that will support me better. Probably a seat with a back rest. My pain is bad enough that I can hardly ride the 13 miles to work anymore.
I have $450 in the seats and am asking $400 + shipping. (US Only) I am asking for a trade on the side covers. They were covered to match the seats with the carbon fiber material. You get mine, I get your (in good condition) side covers in return. Doesn't matter if they are chrome or painted, just don't want any melted broken items in return for mine.

These seats are the 'Tuck and Roll' style with gel pads in the front and rear. Front has been cut down 3/4" and back 1". Rear has been widened, and over stuffed for making the passenger happy. :)

Robert has been awesome to work with. He even took the front and did it a second time for me with a softer gel because of my pain. It did make it better, just not good enough for me with this problem. I will have Robert recover whatever new seats I get. I LOVE the 'Tuck and Roll' and Robert's work is second to none. ;)

Here ya go! I prefer Paypal.

I work late nights, so I won't be checking this until the afternoon.

Thanks for looking.

Sorry to hear about your pain. Hope a new seat will help.

I know you said the passenger seat was widened but was it also lengthened? It looks longer than my stock one. I'm a little interested but I'm not sure how the side covers would look on my silver S. hmmmmmmm:hmm2:

Ray, if the lower back needs a back rest you could look into the Utopia. It is a great product.


Robert reworked the seat he did for me to accommodate it. Works great ... Have the Ultimate with backrest on the X and the Utopia on the Spirit is really a much better backrest. Much more flexible in it's positioning options.

Just a thought if you would like to keep the seats.


I will remove my nose from your business now ..... since I have no idea really of what you require to help relieve your pain....

No. It is the original length. It just looks huge with all of the padding. ;)

Hope you feel better soon Ray
Thank you. Me too. :cheers:

I understand back and butt pain, have you had a MRI done tp see what it is yet???
My whole spine is dorked up. Pinched nerves, compressed vertebra/s, I had fractured t7 at one time so it's always tender, My atlas/axis/oxiput (base of my skul/upper neck) are destroyed, and my tail bone is messed up. I don't bend so well any more. ;) My brother-in-law is a Chiropractor. He does what he can. I can't imagine how bad it would be without him. The sciatic nerve pain is the worst. :( I would research things further if I had insurance. :cool:
