I have 1974 Roadster with the original Waffle pattern seat which has a tear in the side. There are quite a few vendors that sell either just the seat cover or the cover along with clips and the trim strip. If anyone has replaced the cover recently on their bike and can give an opinion on the brand and the quality of the product they received, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

http://www.rk-leighton.com seems to be top quality as compared with others I'd looked at. Get new foam from them too. Only one I found without an added seam on the side. I re-habbed my seat pan as well, it all turned out well.

I did not find seat covers for '74. I sent them an email.

Thanks.

I had to e-mail them as well, very nice to deal with. IIRC, they have some dealers that stock their products here in the states.
 
Burtons British Bikes in England, I brought a new solo seat as well as a seat cover for my innerstate seat came with cover and all the clips needed as well as a new strip, fitted well and looks like the orginal, Danny is good to deal with and fast delivery, 3 working days to Australia.
