@Donatello

Where did you buy the seat ? And ho much price if you can tell  ;)

On webike Japan, its the daytona cozy seat. There was a discount but still pretty expensive at 30.000 yen. I'm an ambulance driver and in my country everyone in healthcare got a 1000,- euro bonus because of the extra efforts during this Covic outbreak. Aslo this summer I worked 40-50 hours a week so I treaded myself on the seat :p

Is this seat as high as the original or lower?

its 30mm lower then the OEM one. Its also narrower and the "couch" feeling is completely gone and it feels much more like a normal bike now (almost the same as my Triumph Street Triple R)

How have you got that bike on the rear stand? You have spools on it? Pics?

Look at the rear axle, the anodized red conical items are the pick up spools. The rear stand has a fork on each side.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

I had the luck and pleasure of actually seeing Kanerdog's 14 in the flesh a few years ago before he sold it..What a thing of beauty :notworthy: :notworthy:

Hey Teufel,

The brand of the rearsets on that bike is Agras. Really expensive but Agras makes the most beautifull parts for the GSX1400. The engine mounts are also from Agras.

https://www.webike.net/sd/9650175/

Matt can make two different exhaust hangers, one that mounts up on the passager peg (as on my white/bleu bike on the previous pages) or one from the shock mount as on the red/black bike. I think he still has the molds for them so if he's willing maybe he can make you one.
Lovely bike Donatello,
I have the same Agras engine mounts on mine and the same rear sets as yours, Coerce if I'm not mistaken, on my 1400 turbo.
I have spent a bit of cash online with Webike, they have some good stuff on there.
