[QUOTE="JamesK, post: 1284268, member: 1858"] When I was shopping for a replacement for my worn out Bill Mayer seat, I did speak with Seth about getting a seat made, he was nice on the original call where he wanted me to just send in my BM seats and he would contact me later with an ETA for a build date and other specifics. Given that I'm located in Japan now and the added costs and delays of shipping and any returns for alteration I tried to follow up with him before sending off the seats but got no responses. This didn't give me a very reassuring feeling about proceeding with Seth so I went with Russell instead. Since I had lost nothing but some time and change on the international call I left it at that. My post is not meant to either support or declaim Kampod's post or experience but simply to point out that there are likely others out there who have been disappointed with LAAM for one reason or another. I have a friend here in Japan, a fellow biker who's got a LAAM seat made for his Tenere, and whilst he did get his seat it had to go back for alteration and came back after a rather long delay and was still not done to his specs. @Kampod, sounds like a good reason for a [URL="https://www.ironbutt.com/ridecerts/"]50CC ride[/URL] to me, than you can collect your seats in person, I'm sure one of the folks on the forum could lend you a seat for the ride, especially if they live in an area that's snowed in with white crap for the next few months.
