They werent any more expensive or cheaper that Kashimax seats.
I remember them from 86 so they were probably around in the states before then

One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

I bought a GT survivor and the bloke didnt change 1 single part on it from new. It was bought in 85 and his Dad still had the receipt!! It had a black elina flite seat. :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

The Flite Tech seat was around in 84, stock fitting to the Vector Victory series bikes  :daumenhoch:

I aint a big fan dunno why  just don't think they have the same class as kashi and shotgun's...do love the elina lighting bolt though got a real vintage feel about them.

From what I can make out the Elina time line would be....


1981 Elina (a lightning bolt without the bolts)
1981 Lightning Bolt
1982 Ulta Light
1982 ET
1983 Ultra Light /w fiberglass post
1983 Turbo
1984 Flyte Tech

There were a few others but they're the ones that count
