Are the R1 Sport(Nopi has them labeled as Sport, other websites have them labeled as RSR) seats worth the money? How durable, how comfortable, and would you go for a long ride in them? They kinda look like the Sparco Torino's, and that's what got me interested in them.
What your thoughts on them?
Thanks!
 
I've heard some good things, i think those are the choice seats as far as going cheap. but i dunno
 
I have them and love them. I couldnt see spending 1500 on seats when you could get R1's for 450. Heck if they wear out you can buy three sets and still be cheaper than the sparcos. They appear to hold up great. No fading, tears, ect. I say get them!

Hey, are they the same fabric like the Sparco's? I found this big picture of the R1 and it looks like a satin shine to it. Looks kinda like plastic.

Ya that's them but it doesn't say R1 on top. Make's you kind of wonder if they are true R1's. :confused:

The seller sold a pair of those seats for $80! I went looking through his feedback. :)
 
I would find it hard to believe that you could buy a pair of R-1s for $80. The ebay ad is conviencing though. I kinda want to try them out.

where can i get Tenzo Rs or R1s?

those are really affordable...i dont see the point of spending 2500 to get a complete set from König....(including the rears)
 
I have owned a pair of the R1's and a pair of sparco tourinos and I love the r1 better. I feel that the leg support is at a much better angle than the tourinos. the tourinos feel like if I stop fast enough I will slide out of them. The R1's were great. All thats in a sparco is the name on the headrest. Go with the R1's !!!
 
The seller that's selling those R1 seats, says he got them from R1 because they were overstock. Then I sent him a pic of the R1 seats NOPI sells and he replied that those are different from what he's selling. He says his R1's are made by a different company then the company that makes the R1 seats NOPI sells. :confused:
 
If they are different from the NOPI ones dont buy them.
You should purchase them directly form R-1 they have a wherehouse in california so most things are in stock. Dont buy them unless you know that they are genuine.
