Title: Custom seat builders
Post by: Triggergee on 15 August 2018, 08:38:11 pm

As per title who's the people to go to for custom seats? I know of Tony Archer and Digger but is there another? I seem to remember having one made for 600 which I don't think was either one of these guys but I can't remember!  :wall

Whereabouts are you Tigger? I know a great trimmer in Preston who’s done some seats for mine and the missus’s bikes. He does almost anything you can think of and it’s great quality. Here’s a seat he did for my Beemer.

I should probably have waited and gone with one of these guys but my eBay addiction got the better of me again and I and bought this seat which I spotted https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F302832371583 (https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F302832371583) I'm not sure but looking at another post on eBay with a similar looking seat it may have been made in Poland which is a shame as we've our own upholsterers in the UK. Still a good looking seat for £210 delivered and if I don't like it I should be able to resell fairly easily.

I always use digger, top job and not too expensive.

I'd second that.
