This unusual "Daytona" saddle made by Selle Italia in 1993 (as the date stamp on the plastic base shows) is on my 1972 Line Seeker build project. Got it for cheap, NOS from the bay about a year and a half ago. Certainly more modern than what was expected back in 72, but the "classic" details and shape makes it look the part without the weight and cost. Plus the "Daytona" name kinda gives it an American flavor which is approrpiate to the bike. Don't know how it feels till I get the bike on the road. If it turns out to be horrible, I'll just maybe put on a Brooks Swallow instead......
Was it meant to be the first of the Regal copies?,....I dunno...... If it was, they sure did not make too many of them. Maybe San Marco made them stop the production as it infringed upon patents for their Regal design.
