    Are you planning on making your own seat? I made my own and I made the base out of fiberglass which was actually pretty easy and you can make whatever shape you want. If that interests you at all I can give you a link.

    Sorry I dont have a seat pan though

      Just a FYI.... you can use either a '78 or 79 standard seat as these are identical (no other models though...). They're hard to find, but there was one listed on eBay recently that didn't sell and looked very good. The seller (a bike wrecking yard) was in Moscow Idaho, so it may be worth a phone call. I haven't seen it relisted, and opening price on it was only $40....
      Fast, Cheap, Reliable... Pick any two

        Seat Pans

        Let me chack and see what I have.
        I have 5 seats total I think.
        Since you are looking for just the pan, I will see if I have any that have a good pan but no other value.
        I know I have one that is in excellent condition with a useable stock pad and cover but it has a repair that looks like someone stitched it with fishing line.
