Seat identification

Post by hummermark » Wed Oct 28, 2020 4:47 am

Hi,

I have been told that this is a military motorcycle seat but as of yet I have not been able to identify it. So it may or may not be military - I'm hoping someone any recognise it and be able to tell me what it is!

Hi Hummermark!
This is a driver's saddle from a Russian Izh 56 motorcycle.
version for "long tank".
Someone changed them a little and cut off pieces of metal plates in the base.
This is not a saddle from a military motorcycle. They were produced between 1955 and 56 for a touring motorcycle which was the 56 model.

If you need detailed photos or data from the catalog, write me.

Best regards
Tomasz
