Advice On Seat Pans

Recommended Posts

What pans are you guys using for solo seats? I dont have the means to make my own so I have to buy em. I like the west eagle narrow style but they are out of businrss according to their website and no one seems to have them in stock, or wont ship to canada!!! So Im looking for suggestions on a similar shape pan that might be a little more easily accessible.

West Eagle has in fact gone out of business. you can still get some of their products through Custom Chrome. you can also order seat pans from J&P cycle, though if you do, and it doesn't say "Made in the USA", it's probably made in China. a great seat pan fabricator is Kevin Bass. you can reach him at baasmetalcraft.com

Not for sure what styles you're looking for but I get mine here www.accufast2d.com and fast at shipping too.

Looks like they forgot to pay their hosting bill...website is suspended/offline at GoDaddy

Figured it out, here's the correct website addy (.net): http://www.accufast2d.net

Have your local bike shop contact Custom Chrome. They should be able to order them for you.

Actually West Eagle is closing down operations in california but they will still be operating in Japan, so everything will still be available just gonna have to pay for shipping, Here's a contact # that is still good, or at least it was last week 1(310)787-8577 Ask for Hiro or Guicci

that's what i meant. out of business in California. the problem with them still operating in Japan is the shipping time. i used to be able to order something and have it here in 48hrs. i doubt that's gonna happen now. i'm guessing 4to6 weeks. customs can be a bitch.

Wondering if I can bump this post up and ask a question of Benlilly...

When ordering from Accufast, do you have them weld the bolts on? If so, is there a standard placement and are they aware of that?

The reason I'm asking is because I would like to start by making a few seats that I could sell without first having any customers. Thanks!

Hi Cjartist, No we don't have Accufast do the welding. Seats that I plan to sell outright, my husband does the tabs and bolts. I'm sure he has the information on placement but he's not here to ask at the moment. For most of my orders we send the pan to the client and they have to fit to their specifications and then the pan is sent back to me. The seat I now have up for sale has it's own pivot bar so that it's adjustable. For the front mount/hinge area it is adjustable also. Here are 2 photos that might help.
