Seat Upholstery

Post by MrWasabi »

Anyone know where i can get a seat re-upholstered?
i tried a google search but it gave me more rubbish than anything useful. Found one place in melb but id rather it be local so i can take the seat in.

I know this old guy who calls him self J.C (Johnny .C) who has been doing bike seats all his life , and he is one top bloke
and he is cheap.
he lives in wetherill park and when i went to get my seat fixed for the gpx2fiddy he took me out to his shed's and when he opened the door
they were wall to wall full of motorbike seats :shock: .
and i found a brand new one there and he charged me $45 for it .
Give him a call
