KX500 Missing Seat

(1/1)

Bikingbagga:
Restoring a 1990 KX500 but I'm missing the seat. Anybody have one?
What other years or bike models seats will fit my 1990 so I can broaden my search

Bikingbagga:
Can anyone let me know which other year seats will fit a 1990 KX500 so I can broaden my search. Kawasaki changed part numbers it seems for every year. Does that mean they changed the seat size from year to year?
HELP!

Bengt Weil:
The change in part number from year to year could be something as simple as the seat cover color/material/stenciling - makes it really hard to cross reference for physical fitment. 

Someone familiar with the older bikes ("D" models or early "E" models) might be able to answer your question, but I would suspect that the E1 and up models all use the same seat base. 

Here's a link for reference - http://www.kxriders.com/forums/index.php?topic=2962.0

Another way to assume fitment is search out replacement seat foam, which I believe fit 88-04 kx500's...  another suspicion is that the seat base of a KDX200 may also fit using KX500 foam/seat cover, but this is truly just a guess.

Hopefully someone can give you a definitive answer and good luck in your search!
