I want to put cafe style seat with a place for a passenger on my GZ.if not a cafe than at least a thinner one piece seat. As it is right now the frame has been cut and rewelded with an extension that is flat but I still have the factory single seat. Anyone know of any seats that will fit my current layout? should I just start off with a custom seatpan and go from there? Also trying to find out the diameter of the tube part of the frame because I want to attach clamp on passenger pegs. I think its 1" but its a pain to measure and wanted to know if anyone has done this before.

You are likely stuck with creating your own seat. As for the diameter of any tubing on the bike you might just as well buy a tool for measuring properly.

I've had this one so long it is more than old enough to vote.

I agree. I've had mine over 40 years, and I still find that it's one of my most used tools. Everything from internal & external diameters to hole depths. It's also handy for finding the diameter of drill bits when the size marking has worn off. :2tup:

so purchased 1"-1.25" bolt on passenger pegs (for highway bars) and purchased myself a drill and rivet gun for veterans day and made myself a passenger seat with marine grade vinyl and outdoor furniture foam and a few rivets. going to need some help doing fiberglass work to make the rear cowl and repair the tank but totally different post.
