    B&H seat cover for '78 GS750E

    Anyone have any experience with (or Pix of) the B&H seat covers?

    My seat foam and pan are in good shape, but the cover has several rips.

    I called B&H, but they had no photo of that model. I'm wondering just how far from stock the cover is.

    If you have a better seat cover recommendation- please share.

    Thanks for the help,

    Tom

    Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

      Thanks, I saw this thread earlier. I've considered a travelcade cover, but hoped to find photos of a completed B&H.

      Hopefully someone out there has done a 1978 with bump up seat.

        No cover will ever really look like the stock seat this is why I spent a year looking for a good stock seat for my GS1k on ebay. I am very happy I went that route as my bike looks great with it and the material is still soft. Suzuki still lists the 77/78/79 stock seat as still available but as a super seded number. I would love to see what one looks like. Can be had from flat out for $248. Dan

          It will fit the stock foam and will look a lot like the seat shown on "marvinsc's GS850.

          The stock seat cover had fake heat-stamped seams, and the new one from B&H will have real seams.

          After a few months of riding and sun, it won't look so puffy and "tacked on" -- the seat cover will conform to the shape of the seat a lot better.
