    Hi Folks,

    Got my seat recovered and sponge up as recommend by others on the site. (Jimmy in Falkirk, Scotland) will post pictures when i get some during the daylight. Would highly recommend he did a brilliant job at a fraction of the cost of a new gel seat from Honda and I got him to pur some piping in.

    PS- Would get in soon before the British Pound is worth noting in Scotland ;)

    Im not sure if anyone is looking for the old covers which is from a 2013 CBR 1000RR

    Yup I've been using Jimmy for my seats for the last few years now.
    I've had him do both my Blackbird (now sold) and also my SP1.

    Really nice guy and not too far from me.
    I tend to pop over to his for a bleather when getting mine done.
