Recognize this seat?

When I bought my '97 R1100rt, it came with mismatched seats. The rider seat was the BMW comfort seat, but the passenger seat looks aftermarket (maybe an older pattern Russell?). I suspect that the previous owner kept the rider seat or sold it separately but forgot about the passenger seat. I've since replaced both with a Bill Mayer set, but I plan on selling off the old seats, plus some extra OEM bits to make room in the garage.

Look familiar to anyone? Thanks.20170305_142112_zpsk2bmpga5.jpg
 
Russell puts a sticker on the bottom of the seat pan with a serial number - at least they did on mine.
 
No stickers on the bottom. Looks like an OEM seat pan.

That looks exactly like the rear section of the Russell Day-long saddle for my GS. The hole is for the rider's backrest.

Russell covers the rear seat to match the front but they don't work the "Russell magic" unless you pay extra. That looks like the freebie cover match only.
