Hi All,
Being that I will be riding to the National on my bike with the Harper's
seat.....any thoughts on products to seal up the stich threads? I guess I
could always wrap a water proof material around the seat.
By the way John.....you coming to the Nats?
Regards...Ian

| I tried a Harper's seat on my Eldo and it was comfortable but keep in mind that it absorbs water through the stitching. If the seat gets wet and you sit on it, it oozes water all over your ass. I went for the waterproof MG Cycle seat sans the springs and front mount. Machined up some spacer/couplers where the springs went so the seat could be mounted lower. Seat is firmer than Harpers but I have done a 1000 mile burn plus several 700+ mile burns with no sore ass. JB (Weld) 76 raT-3 73 Eldo/562 71 Ambo (needs to be fetched from Texas) |
