parsonsm Posted April 24, 2012 #1 Posted April 24, 2012 All, OK, I saw another ad that made me think of this. During my restoration I am looking to recover or replace the brown seat/back that I have for my 84 with a black one. I know I can look on ebay and do quite often but I also wanted to check here for any tips from the group. Thanks, Mark
GaryZ Posted April 24, 2012 #2 Posted April 24, 2012 I bought a black seat and replaced the brown one on the Beast. The black seat was in twice as nice condition as the the brown one! Haven't found a black passenger backrest yet. I bid and won one on e-bay only to discover it is for the smaller trunk. If you need a black passenger backrest for a '83-'84 Venture, I got one for a very good price.
bongobobny Posted April 24, 2012 #3 Posted April 24, 2012 Yau can also try scrubbing up the naugahide as best as possible and try some black dye, or find someone who is good at upholstering...

Gary, There is a thread below that has someone looking for a black 83ish back rest: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=37114

parsonsm Posted April 24, 2012 Author #6 Posted April 24, 2012 Thanks all, I will look into this further. I am not sure if I have the large or small trunk but will send a pic.
