1992-1996 Daytona Seat Fairing Builders Review Request

[HadaDaytona]

I am doing a cafe build and really like the look of the older Daytona solo seat Fairing. I found two companies that appear to be making these .

Officine08 : Fiberglass seat Moto Guzzi 1000 Daytona (Italy) Euro 173,45

avenue748 : Moto Guzzi Daytona race seat (NSW Australia) AU $495

Has anyone had experience with these fiberglass fabricators ? They look good in their photo’s but there is a big difference in price $$$

(I cannot find the "Daytona race seat" on the avenue748 website.   )

edit: Okay, found the avenue748 Daytona seat fairing on eBay/AUS.

Ok, I can't do facebook on my PC, and can't share from my phone; There's a guy on FB moto guzzi sport 1100 group who is making tail covers in both fiberglass and carbon fiber- I think he's still taking orders.

I don't see these particular items on his website, just in the FB group.

The only thing I can add is if I were going to use a Daytona seat assy I wouldn't be using this god awful bread box version but the Daytona RS version. Gundagai where this one is made isn't a million miles away from Pete Ropers place and about a 5 hour drive from mine.

This one has been on the HMB site as a special for years. Take off 19% and add shipping. Michael may cut you a deal who knows.

Agree, the original seat design is far superior to either the Sport or the RS, but that's just my opinion

Only thing I can add is the original was one piece with no seam, as I recall.

The rear would require cutting at the base to accomodate a tail light, if you were mimicking the orignal design

Both.

The RS Sport was a much better looking bike. Different wheels, much better looking seat unit, painted engine, usd forks, more power than the original Daytona and Carrillo rods.
