Does anyone know if seat covers are available, or just the whole seat. I've developed a split in the vinyl and it's getting worse. |

Mark, I've never heard of the cover being sold separately. If indeed that's true you might check local upholstery shops and see if they can recover it. I just had a Harley police saddle redone. |

I see custom-made seat covers on eBay for the Ulysses, in different colours. Looks like they're made in the UK. When my cover gives it up, I may give them a try. |

I will check eBay. I have a REALLY good upholsterer nearby who has done very nice work for me in the past. I just don't want to wait six to eight weeks for my seat... Like I said, REALLY nice work. |

When the time comes to do mine, I'll be sealing the inside of the seams. Hopefully that will keep the water out of the foam! |

Newcastle HD has new seats in stock for less than a hundred. |

You don't need a seat cover, just some marine vinyl of your preference. A yard will do. https://www.buellxb.com/forum/showthread.php?53730 -Cooter-does-upholstery!&highlight=upholstery |

I've done deeper dished seats too, just use 3m spray glue to hold the material in the dished part. Super easy, but with complete seats under $100 it's hard to justify unless you want something custom. |

Less than $100? I will contact them. That's hardly more than the price of a fitted cover. Do they have online parts ordering? |

SPHD is only showing the all-black seat. $108 is a pretty good price though. |
