Re: VFR400 rebuild
my black alcantara turned up yesterday
the guy has sent me nearly 2m instead of the 1m i ordered, ill get a price for recoving my seats and if any one else is interested should have enough over to do another seat set.
if anyone is happy with the price and covers cost of posting seats too and back , can use the alcantara left over for FREE

Re: VFR400 rebuild
yeah no problem rick , i might consider having a go myself but noticed that the vfr seat is side stitched, so potenualy 2 part seat must be made, would look better no doubt in 2 part and tight fit and a nice grey/whatever stitch down the seam ay. if i get quotes for the seats to be recoverd and let you know , if i think its too dear i may choose to cover myself. either way ill have some left , enough over to do another set, so you can just have whats left if i do that.
