    Hi Guys,

    My Yamaha TDM seat cover has a few tears in it. Anyone know of somewhere in munster to either, repair or Recover bike seats?

    Ive tried a few stitch repair shops but they said no. I dont mind if they just recover it all in black or grey, I can easly just buy a Yamaha sticker of some sort

    Cheers

    Easy DIY job, get a cheap staple gun in Woodies/B&Q and a square metre of waterproof vinyl off an upholsterer's and away you go.

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Take the old cover off and completely recover it. No point in trying to patch up vinyl as it never holds.

    Hey All,

    Only getting back to this now. Seat was at the end of my Todo bike list.

    Does anyone know if you can order Bagster Seat covers in Ireland. I tried fleabay, none around. Also Baglux.Co.uk seem to be the UK reseller, and charge £76 + 12.99 postage to Ireland.

    Anyone know if these can be ordered on our own shores?

    Cheers
