6m459 Posted September 16, 2008 #1 Posted September 16, 2008 I'd like to get my seats & backrests recovered. Time was, I'd do it my self. I think those days are done. What are my options? Toronto area would be most convenient. Thanks, Brian H. Uxbridge Ont
Ozark Posted September 16, 2008 #2 Posted September 16, 2008 Do you need them rebuilt or just recovered? I have a link at home to have the seat redone with memory foam, gel pads, etc. it that is what you need.
SilvrT Posted September 16, 2008 #3 Posted September 16, 2008 I had mine done on my '85. Did a whole lotta lookin for somebody who could do it...got a tip from a local Suzuki dealer and he steered me to an autoglass shop that also did upholstery. I got the seat and backrest recovered for $250 and it was a real nice job done in 2 different colors (tan & black) Do some chekkin around...I'm sure you'll find a good shop there somewhere.
mbrood Posted September 16, 2008 #4 Posted September 16, 2008 I don't know about the backrest but these guys offer a two-tone seat cover for about $50... http://www.oldbikebarn.com/Motorcycle_Parts/Seat-Covers/Yamaha-Venture-83-85-2-Tone-Brown-Seat-Cover
timgray Posted September 16, 2008 #5 Posted September 16, 2008 anyone have a photo of their seat cover? the one on their site is incredibly wrong and more for a 1970's dirtbike.
mbrood Posted September 16, 2008 #6 Posted September 16, 2008 It DOES say "sample photo"... Heck, give them a call tomorrow... 1-800-616-8495 (upstate New York)
Guest Ken8143 Posted September 17, 2008 #7 Posted September 17, 2008 I went to a small business that does auto reupholstery and canvas work etc and they recovered my seat and did a great job with it.
