street bob seats

Lets see some street bobs with some different seats. I'm looking at the bare bones from Lepera and I want to get it covered with some kangaroo skin and was wondering if there are any pics out there with a tan seat cover or brownish.

Check out HOGRIDA_06's bike. He has a tan seat on his Bob and it looks good.

Thanks,b. I stripped a stock seat gave it a nip and a tuck and wrapped it in brown buffalo hide. Cost less than a $100. Here's some pics. before the stain wore in.

If you end up modding a stock seat by removing some foam and you don't want to screw up your stock seat let me know (pm me). I have a stock seat that needs some foam work. I tried to recover it and ended up tearing an inch or two of the foam in the process. It would be real easy to make it look like a bare bones seat if you're planning to recover it anyway.
