I had mine rebuilt at alocal upholstery shop who also recovered it as a standard seat cover would no longer fit,to try and get the more modern look,ive gone back to a standard one now because the riding position just didnt feel right,it was as if you where sat on top of the tank all the time with all the wieght too high up,great for keeping the front end down,could have been the vinyl they used but it was slippy has hell too,just couldnt get comfortable with it.Dont think the tank shape helps with it being all up front rather than low and under the seat.
