Seat Mod for Nitrous
I have seen here a good while ago where a couple of guys had their seats cut out and modified for a nitrous bottle to be mounted there. I'm now interested in doing the same thing, where I can place the bottle under the seat cowl. Does anyone knows who I can send my seat to for this kind of mod or if u remember who the fellows were that had this done?
Thank You!

You want the bottle on top or on bottom? Either way I don't think it should be that hard to do.

Eklipse, I want the bottle hidden under the seat cowl. I saw a pic on here one time where they had the seat professionally cut out for the size of maybe a 2lb bottle to fit there, then the seat cowl slides over that. I'm looking to get that done. I can't seem to find that picture here but if anyone remembers who's picture it was and how to pull it up, I'd appreciate u posting it on here.

I have a 1 lb bottle "built in" to my seat for the air shifter somewhat similar to this.
A 2 lb bottle would be tough to do, IMHO.

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 did.
It took way more time than I expected, so I could never make a living doing seats!
I'll get some pics so you can see the basic process.

SLVR_BLT, do u know who's bike is this? This is what I'm looking to have done. In the past, I remember that there were a couple of custom seat makers that some people were dealing with on here. Does anyone know who those seat companies were and who may be able to do my seat like this?
