Ace Desert Parts Competition Seat
This has got to be the hardest item we’ve made in our range Ace Desert Parts!
To get these right we made a mould from a very well know 1960’s Desert seat as we wanted it too look just right, these seats were a year in the making before we was happy countless samples of leather we went though 4 different seat companies but in the end we ended up with a seat we are very proud to call our own and sell world wide,
A must-have item that will complete your Desert Sled build!
To fit the following Triumph models:
– 1960-62 Duplex Frame
– 1963-70 Unit 650
– 1957-1974 Unit 350-500
Some modifications maybe needed on the Unit 500 & 650 models depending on what oil tank you have.
Although these seats have been made to fit the Pre Oil in frame Triumph models, we have sold them to Customers with OIL IN FRAME bikes from 1971 onwards, the brackets at the back will mount to the rear sub frame like the earlier bikes but for the front fixing you would have to make a custom bracket on to the frame, if your good with a welder this is quite an easy mod,
Finished in high quality leather and a Zinc plated steel base these seats really do look the part.
The seat is mounted using a large “U” shaped bracket at the rear and two “P” clips around the frame loop. At the front we supply two flat brackets that use your existing frame stud. Along with the brackets comes all the hardware you’ll need!
When fitting a Desert Seat they are hard bolted to the frame and will not lift up on the Unit models with the original hinges. It was common practice in the 60’s to modify the oil tank and have the oil tank filler moved to the outside to check or refill your oil.

Each one of our Competition Seats have been hand-made with high quality materials. Being hand-made sometimes there are minor imperfections or differences from one seat to another.
