Re: NC30 seat re-covering?
I fancied having mine done in alcantara, but does this not soak up the rain? I dont fancy getting a soggy arse

You never know Kris, one day I might look at the ten day long range weather forecast wrongly and get caught in drizzle!ibby4585 wrote:Who you trying to kid, you dont ride that bike in the rain!!!Polisher wrote:I fancied having mine done in alcantara, but does this not soak up the rain?

OMG then it would take me a month to re-clean it.
Youve got a very valid point though.....

Re: NC30 seat re-covering?
It was a while ago, but it was between £40 and £50 for the two. including the red strap. A bargain if you ask me, very robust and helps to stop you crunching the nuts while braking hard, lol.

Re: NC30 seat re-covering?
i use AJ's Trimming - as i said, he does alot of show cars etc & he is the ball-bags @ what he does.
you would want to speak to Andrew & his tel no is: 01628 530257 or go to: http://www.ajtrimming.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
he'll be doing my spare riders seat before the start or summer (when i get round to it!)

Re: NC30 seat re-covering?
even if the bike isn't used in the rain you'll have to be bloody carefully washing it and i'm sure it'll not take much water for it to feel damp, then it'll smell.
retrim it yeah but in something thats going to be weather proof.
