Okay the story on the Saddle Box seat is that 12 months ago on TOB a guy asked for expressions of interest from Duke rides who might buy this seat. He had a website and we swapped a few emails. Then it all disappeared, website and all. So I presumed that he had not received enough interest.
The a few weeks ago I got an email from Gregory saying that he has been developing the seat over the last 10 months and he is now ready to deliver the first batch.
As for the price…. Please sit down and hold on tight…… Haven’t received the final bill yet but we are looking at about $1,400 AUS delivered to AUS
……… Gulp, cough, splutter……… But it is hand made!!!!!!……. Will confirm the final price once I'm billed..... [moto]
Extracts from his email to me:
There are 2 models. The 'sport' version is the same as the standard one, but with additional body parts to focus on the sport attitude of your bike and be able to get a color touch on the back for a nice effect. The elements here in red or orange are provided in primer in order you can make them painted the color of your choice, as there are too much variations in color, I couldn't be sure to do the exact one.
I have made many improvements in order to get a perfect fit on the bike and make sure every 'rare' user of this hand made product would enjoy it, and would be proud to have bought this limited production concept...
