Has anyone actually successfully used an OEM Cafe Racer seat on an icon? I have searched for days on here and can't seem to find anyone who pulled the trigger on it...

I finally ordered the seat, and before it gets here, I am hoping that it will fit. Either way< i rolled the dice, so we shall see what happens. Now I just need to order the cowl and associated bits to install it, not going to worry about the number plates as of now...

It fit, but not like a glove at all. The plastic tab in the front was a bit looser than the stock icon seat; I wrapped it in about 6 layers of athletic tape (Im at athletic trainer so I had it laying around) and it then fit snug. The seat is a bit loose without the cover on it and had to add some rubber padding to the underside so it was stable.

The sides are the part that bother me the most, so I will be ordering some sort of side cover, whether it is OEM or not is yet to be decided... attached is picture. Ignore dirty garage.
