seat re covering

[Trigger]

That is the place John.

[mickwinf]

that looks like a good product, will try them for my 500/4. I got the last one from Silvers which was good quality but no Honda logo.

[MikeM]

that a good price I paid 75 for seat cover he made, the foam ( not original Honda) strap plus fitting

not bad and it feels right, maybe not original but close enough for me

[Trigger]

I will blab here John. The most famous seat maker who is not far from you, gets his covers from Dis-covers.

John, I found the best seat covers are done by a firm called Dis-covers. They do the full range with the Honda logo.

 tried to order a seat cover,

 Dis -covers number is unobtainable,so sent an e-mail,

 still awaiting a reply,
hope the phone fault is a one off,

Hello, I have HONDA STENCIL LOGO, if you need it, let me know

[Johnwebley]

thank you Piki,

I always warm up the seat cover with a hot air gun before starting, it makes fitting much easier

The lady at 'DisCovers' get her parts from BobtheSeat (Bob Dillinger I think he is called) and he is Morretti of Newent near Stroud. Well that was the case a couple of years ago. Silvers also stock his covers but he has to make them 'down to a price' for them, so I dealt with him directly.

Last time I went to Newent there was a dodgy politically incorrect museum of crime there. My family originally came from Kings Stanley/ Eastington. Lovely part of the country. Lord knows why they moved to Hull after living there  !

Ash, the next time you phone Dis-covers you will find that Mr's Dillinger picks up the phone. I have known Robert Dillinger from when he lived in Watford. Yes, Bobtheseat, dis-covers and Morretti are all of one.

Ok  Trig but originally the lady from Dis-covers was selling his covers 'cos Bob couldn't be bothered with Ebay. He must have realized she was selling good numbers on Ebay and joined the party !

Ash, the penny still has not dropped. The woman at Dis-covers is Robert Dillinger wife

Ah .. See now !!  I tried to get them to do a more luxurious version of the CB750K0 'ducktail' seat cover. He told me he put extra padding in the cover, specially  for the one he did for me but not so sure. Problem is the Yamiya one is really expensive with shipping/import duty etc.etc. Will have to ask Mr Silver if he has any plans to import and sell them. Reports are that the quality is spot-on.

Don't know if it was Morretti but someone tooled up for a steel base for the K0 but got the hole sizes wrong. Was it 'TightFit seats, or is that Bob again!
