My favorite "MOTOCO" seat

Re: MOTOCO seat

Let me introduce my favorite brand “MOTOCO”
MOTOCO is a brand which was established by Mr.MOTOHASHI about 30years ago.
And My YAM SR500 is equipped with MOTOCO café seat.
I like this MOTOCO seat for SR500. 
http://www.motoco.co.jp/MOTOCO%20ORIGINAL/seat.htm
One day I found it assembled on OLDSTYLE CB750K. It is amazing and fits perfectly.
This café seat can fit CB750K,CB550four and other bikes with a littler modification.

MOTOCO also supply with seats for BMW R100RS/R80 and K100RS as well.
MOTOCO seat for R100RS is beautiful as good as seat for SR500.

Nice fluid lines with the 750 stock tank!   8)
Is Motoco still in business, or are their seats hard to find?

Yes,MOTOCO still in business.
Brand new seat is very expensive,so I got used one.

It is easy to find Thailand copy of MOTOCO seats for SR500 on e-bay.
But it is non-approved by MOTOCO. It is cheaper than original MOTOCO.
