Does the 1100 seat also fit the 1200?

Have a chance at an 1100 seat, dude insists it's interchangeable with the 1200. Don't want to put out the $$ until I know for sure.

Thanks Wog, looking at an 1100 by itself it would look like it might fit but your picture of the two together answers the question.

I remember trying to put my 1200 seat on an 1100 and it was NOT bolt on. Much modifications would have to be made.

It's been a while but as I recall it was the length that was the problem ....
