Saddle tear fix?

I am repairing tears in my r90/6 saddle and I'm looking for suggestions on what glue/vinyl repair to use. I took the cover off and plan to patch form the back, then reinstall. What do you think?

For less than a hundred bux you can get a whole new cover...and it will look a LOT better than a patch!!! If you must patch, talk to your local upholsterer, I'm certain that she or he can do a much nicer job than you or I, but I'm thinkin' that it would cost dern near what a seat cover would cost...a seat cover for my R100/7 is only $70.00 from Sargeants...

I agree and would just pony up for a new seat cover for $49.95 from Capital Cycle.

According to them: [I][COLOR="Blue"]Tailor-made covers match the original perfectly. Made in Great Britain. Thermoformed patterns (fluting) and pinstripe edges match exactly where appropriate.[/COLOR][/I]

I've never seen one but I've got to think it would look better than repairs - which will probably split open again on hot day.

And while you are in there, get a correctly-formed replacement foam -- the 35-tear old stuff is long past due for replacement, and it's readily available. I don't shop Capital, but there are several vendors out there I would buy from, e.g., Sargent's for seat foam, Motobins.co.uk for the cover, many others.

This is a pretty common question, and this site has a very good/efficient search engine - for topics like this, search is your friend!
