Title: Kuwahara seatpost help
Post by: modfather on July 18, 2010, 03:28 PM
I have got this kuwahara seatpost which i have never use, it was thrown in with my KZ1. I was asking for its valuation and OBB asked if it was stamped. Checked and i dont see any so is this a knock off or slapped on stickered post?

Mines available at the right price if you're after one. Although i'm more than happy to keep hold as they're a pig to find. May need it again one day.  :LolLolLolLol:
