I need a Bespoke seat builder......

Post by exrm193 »

A bit like Renazco in the USA. Someone who can make me a comfy seat for my XR.
Preferably in the UK.

Has anyone had one built?

If so, any recommendations?

Thanks

I got a seat done by Tony Archer and was very pleased with the result.

Tony Slingsby in Weston Super Mare is mainly a furniture upholsterer, but he also does motorcycle seats occasionally. He did a brill job reshaping the seat on a V Strom i once owned. It was a great price as well.
