Default Ny/Nj seat mod/upholstry

I'm sure there are alot of riders from the northeast here that need their seat worked on like I did. The problem I had was the only way to do it would be to ship it, pay round trip shipping, and either be without a seat for a while or buy a 2nd seat. So a buddy gave me this guys # he's up at greenwood lake Ny / Hewitt NJ line, the name is Richards upholstery, he has a nice setup by his house my friends seat came out excellent I dropped off my seat on Saturday and will be picking it up Tuesday / wednsday, I'll update on how it came out.

Update: I picked up the seat and have now ridden about 500 miles with it and am extremely satisfied. I got lowered about 1 1/2 inches and my wife was complaining that the passenger seat is angled down towards the back so she kinda falls in to it like a couch. So he added some foam in the backend off the seat to bring it up. As a matter of fact I thought that I got ripped off cause when I picked up the seat it looked just like it came from factory you could not tell it was worked on.
Total for the mod was $100.00.
