MSDS / GS Seat
Rarely can you find a craftsman of the old school
producing exact replica parts true down to the last detail. One such man
is Mr Libanore of Monza, Italy. As well as seats for the MSDS he makes
the most exquisite alloy tanks for most every classic Italian racing
motorcycle.
He can be seen at the major Italian Scambio or contacted at his shop
- if your Italian is up to it!

Seat tags
The
seats used on MSDS/GS & Wildcat models (maybe others) were of a different
construction to the "normal" bed & corset spring abominations used
on just about all Italian bikes of the 50/60s.
The seats were made in what is
now a conventional construction - foam on a sheet steel base. A rather odd cover
fixing system involving a leather strip , some rivets & a heavy duty sewing
machine made for a unique appearance.
The manufacturer of these seats recorded
their efforts by attaching a tag to the rear of the seat.
The correct
tag for the seats has been reproduced here in the UK by John Crookes. They are
made in laser cut stainless steel with a nicely detailed logo reproduced onto
the surface.
