What's the difference between the genuine and non genuine seat cover.

Nooooooo! It was £47 from fowlers Inc delivery, it's preshaped so no trying to stretch over the ends and sides without creases. I'll pop some pics up later.

Here's the pics, customers partner is an upholsterer so even easier! Dropped off last night, and I think I have found someone local to do wheels too, bonus!

Wheels sorted and gone off for rebuild with new rims. Old ones corroded when I got the tires off. Seat is finished as well so will be collecting that asap. Hubs will be powdercoated satin black. Turns out my local mot tester rebuilds wheels so they are with him, trusted as he's been excellent in all my dealings with him. Been around since my youth! (a looooonnng time ago) waiting for 1 part to fit all the bodywork (tank damper) ordered July, keep chasing him up but no result so far. May have to look elsewhere but unfortunately discontinued, another bloody saga!

Phoned supplier again, hes still looking for tank damper in his stock. Saw a second hand one and ordered that,hopefully one will arrive soon. Collected seat and that's perfect, taking wheel hubs for powder coating, ordered tyres (trail wings) as these were standard originally? Maybe? Anyone know!

In July I ordered a Gianelli exhaust and its finally arrived. When I brought the box in I thought something was missing as box was so light. Do have the original exhaust setup I had for the red bike and intended to use that for authenticity (its soaking in caustic soda as I type), but I think if this is sprayed black it's not that different in profile. It cost me £156 delivered and bar the delay in receiving it happy with that. No idea what bike will run like with it, anyone know?
I'll weigh both systems later and put up the difference. -
