Classicbike-Raisch King & Queen Slim Seat Vintage for your Thruxton 1200
Exclusive Classicbike-Raisch Slim Seat in the King & Queen Slim Seat version for two-up riding, upholstered in brown genuine leather. The Thruxton 1200 has a beautiful rear subframe with a rounded arch – but you can’t see a thing of it! It’s a real shame. So we’ve made it our mission to build a slim and short seat that fully exposes the Thruxton’s rear frame. The result is a sleeker silhouette and a rear end that’s second to none – especially when combined with the HeckWeck Kit (see accessories section in this description). Pictures speak louder than words here.
Genuine leather – limitededition
Upholstered in the finest brown genuine leather. The leather has a beautiful grain that looks slightly worn right from the start. Over time, the leather develops an incredibly beautiful patina!
If you find the leather isn’t dark enough (in real life it’s a touch darker than in the photos), you can simply rub some dark leather grease over it.
The seat is only available in a limited number of units with this leather (whilst stocks last).
Out and about as a pair
The Thruxton comes fitted with a single-seater bench as standard. If you fancy a ride with a passenger, you’ll need a second seat – the King & Queen version lets you ride with a passenger.
Handcrafted in Germany
The seats are produced in small batches and entirely by hand here in Germany.
The upholstery consists of various high-quality foams (sandwich construction) to offer the highest possible level of seating comfort.
The seat base is made from extremely high-quality, rigid plastic. This allows the base to be kept very thin – the bench is nice and flat, not unnecessarily heavy, yet completely stable.
Assembly
Due to the very narrow seat base plate, the original mounting eyelets in the centre of the frame must be cut off (see the last product photos). Even without these eyelets, the original seat can still be fitted as normal, without any wobbling or other issues. We recommend touching up the cut edge of the frame with black paint to prevent rust.
Classicbike-Raisch Comfort Tip
We’ve all been there – on long rides, we all end up with a sore bum at some point. That’s why we stock the SW-Motech Comfort Seat Cushion. The cushion consists of lots of individual air chambers and is simply secured to the seat with two straps. You can use a valve to adjust how firm or soft you want your seat to be.
This cushion virtually solves the problem (I speak from personal experience – I spend two weeks every year on my bike from morning till night).
It’s also suitable for everyday use, for anyone who wants maximum comfort on their bike.
You’ll find the cushion below this description amongst the accessories.
