    I saw the cover George had made for his bike first hand Saturday and the vinyl and quality of the heat pressing looked very good to me. Very nice.

        Ditto!!
        I need one for a 78 1000 C model bike.
        As best I can tell as I have both C foam and an E foam, they are not the same.

            Adler- Can you post of pic of your 550L seat cover once you install it? I may get one for my '81 550L if it's the same as yours.

            Thanks

                  I sent him some pics and a question about a group buy. Here is the exchange:
                  "Hi,

                  Thanks for contacting me again. Yes, I will give you a discounted price of $55.93 for each seat cover if you order minimum 10pieces. This is 30% off my ebay selling price.

                  Please let me know exact qty you need and I will provide shipping quotation.

                  Thank you
                  Best Regards, TC

                  (This is what I sent to him)
                  Attached are the pictures of the installed seat cover. It looks great and the forum members are very interested in the group buy we discussed.
                  How can we set up the group buy? One thought was that you set up a special account number for us and when we reach the limit of 10 then the group buy is successful.
                  Please let me know your thoughts on this, there are several people who have already said they want at least one seat cover."

                  Clearly there is a communication issue here. Is anyone pursuing setting this up?

                    My cover off a GS1000GL arrived in Thailand today according to tracking info. This cover is good for 1980,1981, GS850GL and the GS1000GL for those years. I'll be posting some pics when ever I get the new one. Probably going to take 3-4 weeks before I receive it though..

                          Here is my -78 GS750 seat with pit-replica cover. It is fine, though not great in my opinion. Some slight wrinkling on the top. Hopefully it settles with time.

                            How'd things turn out with your seat cover? Did you eventually receive it?

                              I did indeed and so far it looks great. I haven't had a chance to install it yet, though, still have more seat pan repair to do. (or seat pan replacement)

                                I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
