I will tell what you need to know, but I need to buy it from you first ;)

Nice, rare seat. Don't see NOS wax seats anymore. I can't tell from that angle what it goes on. Might be able to tell if you take a picture of the seat studs underneath.

I believe the man whom produced these seats was " MARK WEIXELDORFER " Am I right ?

That is correct. To me it looks like a 81-82 250r seat and cover, but I may be wrong. Manbearpig, here on the forums would probably know. I would send him a private message and ask.

If it is a 81-82 250R how much do you think it is worth being so rare???153768:naughty:

I have no idea. There isn't a market set for that kind of seat. I would throw it on ebay with a reserve you feel comfortable with and see what it brings.

neat find!

that "wax on" seat was designed and endorsed by team Honda rider Mark Weixeldorfer in the early 80's. he raced and won the 250R's first attempt at the baja 1000 with sundahl and corda. he also raced at staduim events. he raced for honda through 86

that seat you have is a "desert" type of seat with the thick foam, "wax" designed it to perform like the hi flite seats of the day.

that seat probably fits 81/82 250R

i have pictures of Mark at riverside raceway in 1981 and also the baja 1000 in 1981 in our family's album.
