For info, just taken delivery of the re upholstered seat for my VFR v-tec. Work was done by Melvin Hunter who advertises in back of Golden Wing. Went over to Coventry to meet him & see a sample of the work & he is a really nice bloke. Very helpful. Speedy turnround & although not cheap the quality of the seat is excellent & represents good value. I have had the Gelastic pads fitted front & rear. These are not like the average gel pad but a 'honeycomb' type of material which is very good at absorbing impact. For details see web site...
