Customizing my own seat

Recommended Posts

So I have decided I am going to be customizing my own seat soon on the Honda SS. Hope all goes well:popcorn:. Any suggestions from anyone who has done this before are always welcome. Also, if anyone knows where to get impact gel or other good gel inserts that would be really helpful. Wish me luck, I am sure I am going to need some of that.

Does anyone make a new seat cover for a Honda Shadow? I wonder how hard it would be to make my own...hummm...?:confused:

I will post some pics when this is completed!

I just redid my padding Tuesday night, now have a memory foam cushion.

I'm going to post a how-to as soon as I get a minute to write it up. I just re-used all of the OEM Seat, just cut it up and put memory foam in it. Used a 14 dollar pillow from walmart.

Don't know anything about custom stitching though.

How would you rate the difficulty? And how does it feel now?

Here is the how-to I used as a basis for mine-

Here are the pics I took while doing mine, I'll add the text and steps this weekend sometime, but you can at least start thinking about it and figuring it out.
