OC people - Aftermarket Seats

[dhonda]

Okay this is my plight. I live in Orange County and I want an aftermarket seat for my 2g GSX for 3 reasons:
Height 6'01"
Weight 205

1.) I don't have enough head room (highest priority)
2.) My stock one hurts my ass to sit in (second highest)
3.) They look good.

I have tried getting peoples opinions and reading many postings on which might fit better etc. I have gone to shops that let you sit in them and tried several out. I even went so far as to drop $800 on a Cobra seat only to find that it didn't fit well at all. (Restocking fee of $178 sucked ass).

I am really interested in 'trying' out some seats in other peoples' 2gs in the area (especially the sparco torino). I would really, really appreciate it. This way I don't have to waste any more money on something that I am not going to be happy with etc. I will even buy you a beer if you help me out . PM me if are willing to help a guy out.

-TIA
Dirk

You think thats bad bro? Try being 6'5 250. I hear ya. I can deal with it for the most part, The main problem I run into is my legs hitting the steering wheel so I'm probably gonna try to find a really small steering wheel to bolt up. Sorry I can't help with the seat situation.

If I lived in the OC I'd let you try out my Torino's. And would you still buy me a beer, even if I'm 17? :laugh:
But I'm 6'2" and 140 lbs... and I love my Sparco Torino's. Took me a while to save up the money, but it was well worth it! You should fit in the seats fine.
