Default F4i Pillion Seat

Hi guys,

I have an 02' F4i, so it has the split seat.

I have just dismantled most of the bike to repair any minor scratches etc and basically give it a fresh spray job. While doing this I noticed that my rear seat is slightly warped. The rear left corner is raised up, ever so slightly, but its now one of those things that now I know it is there, it bugs me!

So, short of buying a new one, has anyone got any clever tips that might help get it back into shape?

I'm not against buying a new one as they are not crazy prices, but if I can do something for free it's much better :-)

Cheers

You might be able to heat it up with a heat gun and then flatten it out.

Yea I'm with him on this or sit it in the sun for a few hrs if you live somewhere warm and try pushing it into place. Or very worst case scenario take it to a upholstery place and get something that you have always wanted.
