    Installed the full pelt

    Put the Alaska Leather full pelt on today. I'm happy with the pelt but disappointed in myself for kinda messing up my seat. There's three prongs on the front of the seat and the two small ones behind the gas door were in the way of sliding the front seat cover strap on and off. The seat cover is made to come off and on easy so you can bring it inside if you want. I trimmed those prongs back a little too far so now the front of the seat doesn't fit as tight as it did. It's really not a big deal since there's a big prong underneath holding the seat on. It's just one of those things you wish you could redo but can't. Oh well. If I could do it again I would trim the prongs a bit less and they would have been able to pop in and out by pulling on the nose of the seat.

    Besides that the cover fits great. I like how it's shaped and the rear covers the side bars and bag latches. I wonder how it would look trimmed to the shape of the seat but I'm afraid to cut it. There's a strap under the nose, the rider area and the pillion area.

    And remember, it's from an animal so it's not shaped perfect. Another thing I'll just have to live with. Damn OCD.

    Tell me what you think, and I'm happy to answer any questions about it.

    I wish they made them to fit with elastic or something. Then it could slip on and off and fit the shape of the seat better.

    I was looking at the sheep pelts.
    I am not sure about them? Do they rub the paint? You know where the underside makes contact with body panels.

    I'm not sure about rubbing the paint. Im not happy with the full pelt because of how it hangs over and it flops around in the air. Im exchanging it for two pieces.

    I lost the little flat hooks that used to hold my beaded seat cushion on to the seat.
    The sad part is I can not find anywhere to buy them.

    I found these hooks,but the gap on the hook is too wide.
    Any of you guys have 4 of them that you will part with?/sell
    I need them to run my elastic through and hook to the seat lip on the side.

    I just sit on my airhawk or my mesh, I don't want them attached in any way.

    The problem with that is the beaded seat cushion will fly off if I stand up.
