              Sounds like a great time to have one custom fit to your behind.

                My 79 Special Seat is the one with the high-back rest. I love it, but its cracking badly. I need to have it re-covered, or something. If that is what you have, I wish I had a seat to trade you for it.

                  Nope, just a regular flat seat but it's very nice

                    Wont the 79 seat fit your 81, or are you looking for something different? I have a custom made one that came with mine that's too wide for me, but its very nice and I believe it was never used. I could send some pics if you'd like to see it. I currently have one of those "double bucket" jobs on mine and would prefer a stock flat one.

                      No, it's different.

                        Post up some pictures if your seat in the for sale thread, maybe someone out there is looking to trade but doesn't frequent the forum here?
