Hi folks, just wondering what's the best material & cushioning for a custom seat.Don't want suede or anything that soaks up moisture, or i will have a wet ass.The colour is going to be red i think with Cagiva Elefant on the front seat & a Lucky Explorer logo for pillion pad.What do you guys think ?.The colour of the bike is in Lucky Explorer colours white/red/green.It will hopefully be shaped like a Corbin seat.

I know of a few places that will do up custom seats for you. Ill get the links for you when I get on my computer later. Most of them do a really nice job without breaking the bank, and usually toucan send your stock seat into them and they will redo it.
 
Thanks Slashfan but i am in the UK you know mate.I have seen prices upwards of 450GBP.
 
I'm pretty sure they cater world wide, but shipping might be a little more. I'm not sure though.
 
Ok mate i will have a look when you post the links.
 
Can you tell me what kind of bike it is?
 
It's a trail bike or dual sport/adventure bike.The make/model/year is 1995 Cagiva Elefant 750 Lucky Explorer :).

I'll see what I can do. No promises though :sly:
 
The reason i ask, is i want to customise my bike with different things here and there :D.Then i will upload some pics of my bike to see what you guys think.Here is what i have in mind:

A full exhaust system with twin termignoni stubbies fitted ( straight through obviously )
K&N air filter
mess with fuel mixture
Extra mud guard off a Suzuki DR800 fitted under top fairing ( painted in matching colour with decals )
Mesh grill over the headlights like a proper dakar bike
tidy up various metal parts like engine casings etc
Fit a dakar type non see through windscreen and add decals on to it
Have the rims polished as well.Or replace with stainless steel spoked wheels.
