Dang, I was going to say engine for second guess! OK, I will guess a seat.

We have a Winner! Mike guessed a seat and that is correct.

An incredible find. This NOS seat is for a 502/503 and in the original packaging. It makes me wonder again how it could possibly have been up there all these years and I never saw it.

Mike wins a copy of Braaap Films Old Iron DVD. I have several versions for him to choose from. Thanks all for participating.

Think Snow!

wow, what an awesome part! I have only seen one other NOS one, and that was on a machine. Super rare ! Good thing a mouse didn't find it. So much fun! Thanks Bruce, you rule !

Well Roy, I may have a plan.

I found some NOS parts for a 500 like the chassis with all the bogie stations, a hood, handlebars and some other parts and I've been thinking about putting together an NOS restoration. This seat, although I would have to redrill the mounting holes, would fit nicely on that package.

We will see what the project brings.

Thanks all again for playing along!
