POSH W400/W650/W800, " CAFE SEAT", SEMI DOUBLE, BLACK / BLACK PIPING, 040102-06-10
The POSH W650/W800 "CAFE STYLE" (short) semi double seat is a dedicated W650/W800 cafe style seat sold by POSH Japan. The Cafe style seat is compatible with the standard W400/W650 & W800 frame in factory trim (or equivalent finish). Offered here in an all-black trim. The POSH W series Cafe seat is designed as a semi double (or short double), meaning you can still ride two up unlike many single seat cafe style seats.
The W650/800 seats have a new improved seat base improved by POSH. This seat will suit owners looking to replace their factory seat for comfort and aesthetics. A super popular W650/800 seat from POSH for owners adding style to builds with a classic Café Racer vibe or use on your Custom build, especially when matched with our short rear stainless fender and lower stance! However, its works equally well with many other fenders including the stock fender.

+ Recreates the atmosphere of the "Cafe Racer" styling, but with versatile use on many build styles!
+ Reduced seat thickness, which is a great match for classic cafe styling or custom builds.
+ Can be used with various normal bars, clip on bars, & also by owners who seek a lower seated position.
+ Can be installed at the same time as most rear carriers and pannier racks.
+ Fits with original W400/W650/W800 tank, as well as many custom tanks with normal length.
+ Made in Japan.
+ The tandem (pillion) belt is NOT included. As the seat is suitable for two up, we suggest adding a rear grab rail or separate pillion strap if wanting a passenger.
+ Although the seat is waterproofed and has welded trim, there are minor cases where water may seep into the seat seams due to stitching treatment and design. This is normal with most seats including factory seats. Just let it dry in the sun or if parking in rain / wet conditions use a seat cover when parked or washing the bike (as normal).
