    I recently found a seat I'd like to use. But I now notice I'm missing 2 of the rubbers from the bottom. Ideas for replacements? Anyone have 2 kicking around? It doesn't seem like something people would separate from the seat.

    xj4ever.com rebuilds seats and likely carries them

    look up your seat in
    www.partzilla.com

    some seat bumpers are also exhaust bumpers

    If you hit a wall, compare the part number to XS650 (Partzilla has this function). Mike’s XS has reproduction bumpers. My own experience has been rubber parts from there don’t match quality with original. But, in a pinch...

    82 maxim 750. But based on what im seeing oem. They are more expensive than I think they are worth. So im leaning to just some 6mm rubber scrap glued on. It would do the same job

    We should have some good used ones available, send me a note. I think there's a whole bunch of those on the seat pan, 9 of them per pan.
