Seat cover material
« on: August 18, 2020, 03:16:22 PM »
You know how most dirt bike, bicycle, and tractor seats are made by stretching fake leather material over foam and then stapling it to the plastic or wood base?

What is the cover material called and where can I buy it? I need to re-cover some seats and make some knew ones.

Naugahyde.

Please try to buy sustainably sourced Naugahyde. The wild Nauga population is in decline.

In a search that is sure to add me to some new lists, Google led me to here:

There's a waiting list and they take Bitcoin, but they say to contact them with questions.....

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben
