My post was confusing, here's a better explanation:
The seat mounting hardware is all BK, but in the case of the GTSs, the shoulder belts were attached to the oem GTS bars instead of the BK harness bar.

The GTS half cage is perfectly set and was able to be legally sold in the US, it was a main reason to buy them!

Thanks for the clarification. It just sounded odd that the GTS roll bar had been removed. I definitely agree with the factory roll bar being one of the main reasons why you’d purchase a GTS. It’s part of the complete package that makes the GTS superior to a Comp and base model.
