I have another bike that is the perfect riding position the seat is far from it. After 30 mins my arse feels like it is dead. Anyone local in Devon that can re upholster a seat, I would like to keep it looking original.
Many thanks

Re: Seat re upholster and comfort
Years ago I gave the stock seat of my DRZ to a high street furniture upholsterer to make it more comfortable.. and it is now.
It's all day riding compliant now.
I don't think the shop is around now but they weren't a motorcycle specific shop so just seek out a local upholsterer and see if they can help.
