DIY Seat Covers?

[TMead]

Hi, anyone actually recovered their seat with one of those seat covers you can order? I'm thinking of changing my stock black to a brown but liking the vintage colors they have that look much better than the Triumph dark brown IMO and much cheaper but still not cheap. One I found is from Sixty61. Appreciate input if you have done yours.

done 2 bikes, a G650GS + my 2018 T120 EZE IMO. for the T120 i used LuiMoto's nice quilted brown cover although there are many options. mainly you will need an air stapler + even the cheepie from harbor freight works + get stainless staples!! vids on their site + you tube. take your time + dont be concerned with removing staples + adjusting the fit, a warm cover as well as a hair dryer or heat gun used carefully helps. sorry no pics as i am more mechanical + less techy!! search + learn

Great to hear some real feedback on them. There's more options in them than seats I think. Did you add the gel inserts on any of them? Thanks again for the information and experience.
