i have a seat for an 82 xj750 maxim that is yours for free if you pay the shipping. not sure it will fit though?
I see that now, makes sense! Anyone else done this? Good improvement? Plenty of parts on eBay for this.
This is really old but I think it’s parts 6-11 on this partzilla link: https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/yamaha/motorcycle/2007/r6-yzfr6w/shift-shaft
