Just wondering about changing the stock seat setup to a single/shorter seat setup on a 00 X1. I have been looking for sometime now and only thing I have found is a super expensive mod out of the EU. Looks nice but a little rich for me. I don't want to change the stock setup other than the seat/looks. Like a S1, where the end of the seat sits about mid rear wheel...sportier, less chunky!! Ideas? The only thing I can think of is buy a second seat and sub assy and modify it myself?? Anyone know of a kit or plan? TX af226 | ||

i just build a new sub section for mine but it uses a stock 2 up seat. I wanted to do a single as well but didnt. I so have a slightly tweaked stock tail id like to sell cheap that may work for you to cut up and come up with something... thats why i bought it in the first place. | ||

I run a Corbin. Great seat. Much more comfortable than stock. | ||

Not really looking for more comfort. Looking to change the look of the rear of the bike by shorting it up to look a little like a S1. Seems that no one has any info on this?? Been searching this and found nothing? Weird. | ||

I do not know how to post pics but there is an x on streetfighter that they removed the back framing and made a single seat pan looks good been thinking if I would like. It! | ||

I haven't seen a kit per se' but I made a different tail as well. This sounds like more what you are after. This is one of the bikes I got some inspiration from.  Very minimal and not too difficult to make. | ||

I loved that bike from the first time i saw it. Needs a front wire wheel! | ||

Dutch. Nice setup. Does it use the stock seat? Very cool. Have to say its interesting dependant on the price of course  | ||

Ok so where is the oil tank on an X? That bike isn't complete, no chain, either. The oil bag is in the same place as your S1 and all tubers. | ||

Ok he has the battery laying down is that ok? | ||

the x1 has the battery laying on its side...... | ||
| S1owner |
Ok so could I lay the battery down on my s1 or does it require a special battery | ||

i really do not know,but i would assume that it just requires a sealed battery and i am pretty sure that yours will be sealed.. i am not sure but i know someone will chime in. |
