    Great instructional video! I’m rebuilding the padding on my stock ‘08 DR650 seat using SunMate foams but I’ve never modified a moto seat before so this walk through (sans talking) was very helpful! I don’t have an industrial sewing machine so that’ll be interesting to figure out, glad I can hand stitch 🤞🏼

    I've always seen a few holes in the plywood base to let the air escape when sitting on it.

    Turned out real nice man! I'm just starting to mess with making mini bike seats. Still only doing the 1 peice material stretch deal but they're getting better. Have folds on the back of the seat but I try and use material that'll help camouflage it. Lats one I did was vinyl "snakskin" gonna start playing with a sewing machine soon. Where did you find the right density seat foam? That's my biggest issue. A lot of my early one were too soft. All the best to you man

    great job!a small tip: if you put a few treads through the outer skin, on the line that had to bend/fold, at the back(for leaning I guess), and you pull those treads through the foam and wood so you could pull it down and fasten(staple) it behind the wood, then you would have had a tighter fit over the foam. But I think the way it turned out now, is more beautiful than that would have been. I like your video very much

      +sixtyfiveford Yeah I broke, fixed and broke again several older home machines before breaking down and buying a real machine, it should pay for itself I hope.

    • @DanTheFordFixer
      @DanTheFordFixer  7 років тому +1

      It's called spra trexx it's a textured marine vinyl, it has more grip sometimes I use it on dirt bike seats.

  • @savageinnovations1760
    @savageinnovations1760 7 років тому

    The machine he is using is a reliable barracuda it is identical to the sailrite is built by the same manufacturer not a Chinese knock off is considerably less then the sailrite. All sailrite parts and accessories fit it.

    • @DanTheFordFixer
      @DanTheFordFixer  7 років тому +1

      The sailrite machines are a chinese knock off of a Thompson, every machine of this type made today is a chinese knock off.
