By the way, if anyone out there has a nice, used 850-T seat FOR SALE (stock, preferably...) please MESSAGE me ASAP!
Thanks in advance! :smiley: :cool:
We have to get rid of that dreadful "Bucket-Diaper" seat (see photos) that came with it!! :shocked: :shocked: :huh: :huh: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I would remove the cover, cut down the foam with a carving knife to desired shape, and have it recovered.

It looks good on your bike...:cool: :thumb: - but I think a stock-type seat would look better on that 850-T (...just MHO) :wink:

It's an fugly seat. :grin:

Very comfortable seats are usually ugly as hell!

After fixing the electrical issues, a brisk, 57+ mile shakedown ride this morning on the 850-T, and it ran just fine! :cool: :thumb:

That seat just makes it look slow. It hurts my eyes to look at it.
Guess I missed that discussion: Just HOW did he win it, in a $10 raffle? and what condition WAS it in?

Rally fee was $50 for the weekend, including camping and meals...his ticket was 1 of 89 drawn...better odds than the lottery. They give a bike away every year!! :thumb: :smiley: :cool: It is a "BITSA Guzzi", (rebuilt and bored out to 1000cc), build by Matt and Stephan of ALBQ in good running condition. Cool little bike!! A few other photos from last August. He intends to RIDE IT to Datil this year!! :thumb: :cool: :wink:
