My seat is bandanna'd from the sun, and the grab strap is broken off, and it has a tear in the front and rear, and the cushion is now rock hard.

I'd love to get the thing refinished in real leather, like the leather pictured below...

maybe leather over gel, or something more comfortable than stock...

any suggestions? i dont mind shipping it out for good work, i just dont know anyone local

I highly recommend Baldwin Motorbike Saddles! He does very good work and is a BadWeb member.

I've been thinking about doing something similar for my X1. There a local car upholstery shop that does good work. Anyone tried that route?

Rick, Loren (Gowindward) is the owner/operator of Baldwin Saddles, in case you didn't get the memo... He's one of the best in the biz IMO, and he's a Bueller.
