Nitrous Designs Seat For The Zx14
I brought this up in a thread a while back... I apologize for not posting in that one I just cannot find it..
Here's what I came up with on the new design...
later I will show a video on how to unhook and re-hook the nitrous bottle.....
Any feedback would be greatly appreciative..
I will be buying about 40 seats but I'm trying to decide on the price I should ask..
And also I have some easy custom design brackets for the LCD screen 100 and LCD screen 200 that I would like to get feedback on later..

Isn't it a wrestling match trying to position it in one spot as you're coming down with the seat?

Looks real nice and clean! 
Could you fit a bigger bottle?

Do you have any underneath pictures? I want to see how it runs through the bottom of the seat.

Thats how I have my air bottle for my shifter mounted. Then I just cover it with my rear seat cowl. Looks real clean.

"Looks real nice and clean!

Actually notching the plastic out of the bottom more gives a lot more room... We are looking into putting two bottles side by side and also working with some sneaky peek bottles
dubious, I don't know if I got the chance to thank you for the carbon piece I purchased off you.. I am really happy with it matches really good with the whole motorcycle
"Niiiiiiiice Rideharder!"
Thank you NinjaNick
"nicely thought-out modifications!"
I think I got the knack when it came to working on aircraft engine parts.. trust me everything is not done by the manual..lol
"Thats how I have my air bottle for my shifter mounted. Then I just cover it with my rear seat cowl. Looks real clean"
I've been doing everything to cut down on wind drag and this particular mod actually is quite helpful..

Is that a 2lb bottle? I want to put a 2.5lb bottle somewhere on my bike. I like the dyno tune dual bottle setup, and with 20oz bottles, that is 2.5lbs.

The Dynotune looks cool, but it is somewhat unsafe, imo. The way the bottles attach to the valves means that any serious force exerted on the bottle could snap the head off at the valve. With 900-1200 psi in the tank, it could have catastrophic results for anyone nearby.

Nitrous is like crack..
Here's a friend of mine that looks like a mad scientist in his garage hitting the purge for me.
I decided to go with the purge because one time I was in a quick race and hit the nitrous and heard a loud pop in my airbox.

Actually it's a 1 lb bottle (amount of nitrous).

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

I like that.. Any way to build a metal box for safety and have it inside around the bottle?
Try a 2008 Connie seat and a have it so the rear seat cowl will fit. And install a
metal
box in cutout and strap it in............ Make room for a gauge too under seat?
