It's re-cover, but a damned nice one.

Suddenly shows the flaws in the other aspects.

I thought that these behemoths didn't need comfort seats as they are all day comfy????

Mine is going to Digger in Newport South Wales for a recover and maybe slight re-sculpture in a week or two.

Can anyone advise on the re-shaping of the SC24 seats, do they need it as it's gonna have a new cover so I have that option?

Nice Corbin seat BTW, they do (did?) nice stuff.

Buy a cover out of the States and do it yourself..................

Or get a Corbin!!

I did the same as Woof.............

The guy that does my seats does a spectacular job and this will be the 5th seat he has done for me. Front and rear T595 Daytona seats, RR9 Blade riders seat, GPZ750R (Sofa ) and recently the Street Triple R. The advantage of that is it is done to my own design, although with the CBR I'll probably just get him to redo it in blue to match the original with maybe fresh foam where required.

This pic is hosted on another site and I can't link photobucket images from work due to IT issues.
The cover incorporated a grey pillion perch so I didn't have to keep removing the cover to take my lad out.

I think a little bit of wee may have come out when I scrolled over that photo. That is clearly not the ugliest bike in the world ever is it?

Why, thank you! Haha.

It's mental fun, and after over 15 years on litre bikes, this thing is silly light, insanely flickable and so, so much fun! Don't know why I never tried one years ago. I do however like the torque a litre bike produces and why I'm pleased I found the CBR so cheaply.
