Can anyone recommend a good seat re-upholster, we did the DGR Liverpool on Sunday and my missus complained about the pillion seat most of the way around, I've been quoted 250 for recover with gel pads fitted.
No idea why that photo is horizontal :(

Because... generally speaking, Gordon, being horizontal reduces pressure on an arse... ;)
