hahaha..My friend told me the same thing. Who shat on your seat??
Its a micro-suede seat cover from Japan. Testing the material out. Its synthetic, competitor to Alcantara, but very durable to outdoor conditions since it is used for horse saddles.
Brown was the only colour they had for me to test, but I kinda like it. Kinda like wearing a suede leather coat.

Nice bike, I like that you left the OEM undertray on, the slight modification looks great. Am seriously considering going back in that direction myself.
Do you work for Luimoto or are affiliated with them in anyway?

Thank you for your comments. I wanted to keep the classic RC look without spending money on a fender eliminator. Yes I am the designer and half owner of Luimoto.

...think about it... 10 years ago, my bike is being engineered/drafted/molded right about now... . These are a work of art, when fully assembled. Everyone here has had one, sold one, had two more...well maybe one more, etc. Then they have sold it to a user on here, who has had fun on it, riden it. Then same person buys it back, visa versa. Everyone has added there touch to these sweet pieces. Art. A network of mechanized art.
Beautiful bike ajonty.....you've got a lot of rare, and pricey, parts on your RC. I love those OZ wheels.
Nice......have a new background now.

Here are a few of my winter project, before... and after... the throttle stuck wide facking open at Thunderhill. Long story. In a huge hurry. Dealing with wiring gremlins. distracted at exactly the wrong moment, putting the airbox back on.
All the replacement parts are in the garage. Waiting to find the time to paint it. Expensive little velocity stack screws...
Here are a few of my winter project before... and after... my throttle stuck WFO. A long story, about a wiring problem being in a hurry to get to the track and being distracted at the wrong moment, putting the airbox back on. I left the rear velocity stack loose and it rattled around and stuck in the throttle plate. An expensive couple of screws...
