Title: Fire and Steele
Post by: BamaBikerMom on June 02, 2013, 15:32:16 PM
Hey new to the boards and I was hoping for some help. I am looking for a fire and steele 2 up seat for a 800 drifter... any condition as long as the seat pan is good....My pan has broken around where they had stapled the cover to it and trimmed the leather.

thanks everyone!! :)

Hi, and let me be the first to welcome you...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kawasaki-Drifter-800-Stock-seat-with-frame-2000-2004-Vulcan-VN800-Solo-/350805959416?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item51adaa22f8&vxp=mtr
Looks like someone created a solo out of a dual, but the pan is intact...

See, they start in right away...Based on your name, I suspect that Alabama might be your home base..

 Canada is not involved because the shipper will not sent to here.....so we bow out and remain on the sidelines once more.......seller must be related to PC and Greenbarn.....

  Don't mind RatMan...he put his tinfoil hat someplace safe, and he can't remember where that is....I recognize the symptoms...happens to me all the time.

Welcome to the forum!  I can't believe it, but no one has mentioned yet how much we like pics!!!! 

Don't worry too much about Ratman.   He's just prejudiced against Indiana and Ohio, we don't know why.  You should be OK in Alabama.

I have a 800 2 up seat for sale in the classified it come with the seat rail, and a removeable backrest and rack.  I think it's a travel horse, it's much better looking seat than the stock one. Make me an offer quickly if you are interested, because I was going to put it on ebay in the next few hours since no one showed interest here.

First, you need to understand a couple of things about Drifter seats... resource: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/drifterseats.html

99/00 came with two up seats... OEM - some folks put mustang covers on these seats.

01 and forward used solo seats.

Now, the Fire&Steel seats you mention were seats (solo and double) covered by Corbin on Kawasaki pans.

All of these seats are out of production so you have to look for a used one.

Corbin still makes solo and double seats for the 1500 and 800 drifter.
