WTB stock seat for Nomad 1600
Looking for stock seat for 2008 Nomad 1600. I believe 2005-2008 are the same.
Only need it so I can get it modified. I don't want to send in my existing seat and be without my bike for a couple of weeks.

My fault. On another board, you get a message that a PM has been posted. I was waiting for that. Didn't realize I could go right to the PMs.
Anyway, yes, I'm interested. Shoot me a figure.

IMO when you redo the seat,, remove the wedge on the back of the drivers seat.. it will give you alittle more room,,, Get a Gel Pad and notch a section out in the seat foam..... Cover with memory foam. I did 1/2" I think 1' would have been better on my 1500...... if you add more foam you may have to shave the seat abit so as not to raise you... I am tall so the thicker seat was good for me, PLUS Im getting a taller winshield :)..... Just my 2 cents,,,,,Rich

I sent you an email as requested. You should get a message window when you sign on to this site if you have a PM. Maybe your profile is not set up that way. Radco I messed with the one I bought 4 different times. Did the back part as you suggested and still could not get it the way I wanted. I think a professional upholster is the way to go.

Took mine(stocker) to a local car upholstery shop, paid the guy 125.00 and I'd put the finished product up to a Mustang. IMO. Looking at the seat now, you would think it came off of a 1600 Classic, by it's new shape. It made it a lot easier on my big arse.

Well, my second hand seat should be on its way to MeanCityCycles.
It's going to run $140 plus freight to have it re-done. Hopefully, they'll do as good a job on this one as they did on the one for my last bike.

TopCat was nice enough to send the stock seat directly to Mean City Cycles.
http://www.meancitycycles.com/index.php Unlike the seats for the C50 which I had done in gray, I stayed with the stock black for my red/black Nomad. The seat came by FedEx this afternoon while I was already out riding. Put it on and went back out for another 20-30 minutes. The seat sure fits my butt better than the stock seat! The real test will come when I ride for an hour or two. To be fair to Kawasaki, tho, the stock seat on the Nomad is tons better than the stock seat on the C50. I'd post a picture, but since it's the stock pan and the stock cover, you really can't see any difference from the stock seat. I can, well, my butt can feel the difference tho! TopCat, thanks again for your help.
