Seat covers?

Post by chicagorandy »

I can't blame my 28 year old cycle seat for having some split seams etc. However, looking around the interwebs replacement seats, while quality, are quite pricey.

I own a heavy duty stapler/nail driver and replaced the worn out one on my Honda GL500I- does anyone sell a replacement marine vinyl or leather driver seat cover I could attach on my OEM foam and seat pan?

Probably not. You could contact companies like Corbin and see if they could make you a cover. The best bet is to send your seat pan to a custom cycle seat company have them replace both the material cover and the foam. There is always the option of checking Ebay to see what seats are being offered for sale used. I was looking last night and saw a couple for less than a hundred bucks on the buy now option. That would be the cheapest way to go.

You can also check your local automotive upholstery businesses. They can likely take care of you locally, fast, easy, and no shipping fees...

Since you are recovering, consider your options. I had my seat on a '79 Honda 750 re-sculpted, and re-covered, using heavy-duty marine vinyl, several years ago (2008?): http://honda-cb750-s.456789.n3.nabble.c ... G_0605.jpg. Had it done by a fellow in the metro area, two hours away, but he did a decent job. I had it customized to match the bike's colors, as well. Cheers!
