 Posted: 19:58 - 17 Feb 2015  Post subject: Cracks in seat! |
 |
|
Gosh is that the time? Hope everyone had a happy Christmas/New Year/Valentine's fleecing.. Oh and I have a nice unrestricted full licence now, but I'll assume nobody really gives a toss so I'll get on with the question.
I have a couple of cracks in my seat since I got ACF50 all stuck over it and had to seek recourse by way of a brillo pad. I have some nice protectorant now, but the vinyl got stretched and the cold weather/my bottom conspired to degrade things further.
They're small but I want them to at least stay that way - I saw this stuff on Amazon but it has to be sent from the US -
www.amazon.co.uk/Master-Manufacturing-Re-Stor-Leather-Repair/dp/B003MDVKX8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8
I wonder if anyone has any cheap and easy fix? The two cracks are about an inch long so not a big deal.

Well... there is this stuff which seems to be along the same kind of lines as the US stuff you mentioned.
BUT if your seat has gotten to that state I'd say that you are looking at a recover job, both those products look like the sort of useless twaddle sold on daytime TV shopping channels!!
For cheap and cheerful...You did ask 
EDIT:WTF is going on with my autocorrect???

Thanks - I saw the 'No Heat' stuff as well but the reviews rated it lower (I'm allowing for ameobic Amazon reviewer IQ of course).
I'm using small patches of clear plastic over the tears, stuck down at the edges with sellotape - don't say that's the best I can do!
Fisty - It's a blue Suzuki DR125 from 2009, I would upgrade to a larger one but a 125 is perfect for my 7 mile commute on 30/40 roads. You reckon a replacement seat is the way to go?
