Nice. Do they just stretch over the original seat or do you need to get an upholsterer to fit them? I believe it’s more than just a cover too, they’re slightly padded, is that correct?
I had to take it to an upholsterer. I did consider doing it myself as I do have a h/d stapler for my compressor but I thought it best to get a pro to do it as it was for ma baby. In saying that...I reckon I could have done it myself and saved the £95 the old bugger charged me as I think the job he did is no better than the job I could have done; but then that is easy to say in retrospect. He did go to great lengths to say that he had used s/s staples to stop rusting so maybe they're 0.50p a pop! So I got the cover for £230 (ish) + £95 to fit. Pricey. I was quoted c£400 for a bespoke cover from local bike specialist so If I was going to do it again I might go down that route for the sake of £70 to get a proper, unique hand crafted unit. However it is quite pretty and feel I made the correct colour choice (after much cogitation) of the 3 they have available. And yes, there is a slight padding to it but not so as you'd notice. Now all I have to do is to wait till it warms up and stops F**KIN' raining to take it for a wee test.
