Low and Mean offers a really cool seat pan for the V Star 950. The Low and Mean Seat Pan is 1.50" lower than stock seat pan and we shaped the Seat Pan to flow from the tank and into the rear fender. With the Seat Pan offering a lower riding position this makes you feel like you're sitting in the V Star 950 instead of on top the V Star 950, giving you a feeling that the motorcycle is apart of you. The seat pan attaches similar to stock, however the bracket that is bolted to the rear fender will need to be removed and replaced with a Industry tough dual lock Velcro. This Low Seat Pan comes with all hardware to attach your seat to your bike which includes the mounting plate and 2 capped bolts for the latch, Industry tough dual lock Velcro, and instructions. If you are going to remove the rear seat you can add 4 custom chrome caps for an additional $10.00.
What you need to know:
The 4 chrome caps are meant as a simple fix the front 2 will snap in
with just a little bit of silicone holding them in place but the back 2
caps will need a little extra silicone because of the recess's in the
frame. A few other options you can do is paint the 4 bolts and screw
them back into the fender or get some custom chrome caps that will
attach to the bolts.
What you need to know:
The seat pan comes with no foam or cover. This is a cost effective way for you to build up your own custom seat to fit your style.
This product is made from a fiberglass construction.
We do offer the Low rider seat foam to give you a starting point to building your own custom seat.
The Complete seat has a vinyl cover and open cell foam. We use a protective glue
to bond the cover to the seat foam, but this seal is not water proof but
water resistance. Please have caution when washing your motorcycle,
driving in heavy rain or leaving your motorcycle in the rain for long
periods of time. If necessary you could drill 1/4" holes in the bottom
of the pan to help drain any water.
This product fits The V Star 950 manufactured by Yamaha
How does this compare to my stock seat? We changed the shape and height of the seat for more comfort and style.
Will this still work with my passenger seat? Yes, but if you would like to remove the rear seat you can add 4 custom chrome caps to your order for an additional $10.00.
How does the back of the seat lock down? We used an industrial dual lock Velcro on the back under side of the seat pan with another piece of Velcro attached to the rear fender.
Can i put any kind of seat cover on this? Yes as long as the cover is made to fit around either our foam or the custom foam you will have made for your seat pan.
Can i staple into this seat pan? No fiber glass does not receive staples well, we usually glue our seat covers to the back side of the seat pan.
Will i have to relocate the tools under the seat? Yes, you will because the custom seat is a little lower to the battery and the tools will not be able to fit.
