      Does not say it is new, says taken from an 80 bike. Sure looks to be new though!!

        Although the seat is nice it is not new. You can tell by the red and black tag on the end that the seat has been recovered.

                  It is a $200 seat or more, IF you have two people willing to pay that much. Looks like it time to list some parts!

                        Also said it sold for $55. Hope you did not get sniped out of your buy. Then again, if you thought it was a seat and its only the cover, might be good ju-ju workin for you if you did get sniped.

                          sorry, yest it is a seat cover. he makes them. it comes with some foam as well. since i have a seat already i thought this was a good deal. i did not buy it on ebay, i called his number and made an offer and he took it. sorry for the confusion i just thought this was a good deal

                            Sounds like you basically got a seat for the price. All you need is a pan and most have that.
