As said Hot seats are an ass to find...in any condition!
I have never seen a T/a with a Hot Seat fitted, it might look a little funny on there as they are real stubby. The original idea of them is that they gave enough clearance for your bars to spin without hitting the seat but still allowed the seat and grip to be held at the same time...essential for freestyle.
Are you building your T/a as a race inspired build or are you going for the freestyle look?
T/a's always look right with a Kashi Aero in my opinion!

Hi Damo,

DAMN!! :) So I have bought your old seat and its wrong for ann 86 TA. Balls!! :)

That will teach me. I should stick to GT's!! It is Finny's old one 86 curved brake bridge with Pool comps, but I am changing a lot of bits. Seemingly made it worse. Meticulous told me when I saw him that my frame is not from 86 its from 2000 but made with 86 materials and stamped that way.

Haha. Gutted! I will have to let Steve have his seat back at some point. :)

It's not necessarily wrong, If you like it then do it! Have a look in the museum at some of the t/a builds there and see what you reckon looks right!  :daumenhoch:

Hi Damo - I spotted an 86 with a grabber! Not seen the seat yet but I night like it. It's rocking a white dominator at the moment!

If it ain't broke don't fix it! Dominator is fine and era correct! Skyway actually did branded Dominators too but as rare if not rarer than the Hot Seat as Steve will probably confirm!  :daumenhoch:
