I need to recover my x1 seat. i have a lady that has done several bikes to do it for me. i just need to get the material. I have no idea what to use to recover it in. other than i DO NOT want the cheap vinyl that the factory used. i was wondering where a guy could get aligator skin? or what are my other options and where can i get the material?

Saddlemen has gel inserts, seat kits and various top quality seat materials. I had them fit a gel insert into a custom widened Spandura covered seat on a '96 S1. It actually made touring comfortable on a Lightning!
