OEM seat cover?

[flat6bagger]

Hey Doug what about alligator, the nubs would give your butt a massage while you ride.

I have the Bead Rider seat cushion for that.

Ok looks like the only person that understands what cover I am talking about is Steve.
Here is as simple as I can make it.
You know when you bought your F6B it had a seat on it?
The black smooth cover that is on top of the foam that is on top of the pan of the seat.
That one!
My God.
I took my 3 1/2 year old grandson out to the bike and asked him "can you show Papa where the cover to the seat is?"
He touched the top of the seat and said,"The smooth part Papa?"
Even he understood.
You guys are killing me.

It's not glued down. It's stretched over the foam and then stapled around the under side of perimeter of the seat pan.

Thank you very much.
I have to get a donor seat now and then go see my upholstery buddy.

The attached pics show a clear plastic wrap under the seat material which separates it from the foam. Haven't had my seat cover off the 6! If Honda follows suit my 2002 VTX seat was manufactured the same way....foam, clear plastic covering, final seat cover material. The clear plastic is to keep the cover and seat foam from chaffing against each other

Now we're getting somewhere.
Thanks for the pictures and explanation Bob.
I had seen the staples on my seat,but wasn't sure if the cover was glued to the foam.
Funny,but I never noticed the plastic sheeting.
I must be loosing it.
My Yamaha V Star 1300 was glued,so I wasn't sure if Honda does the same thing.

Were messing with you Doug. What are trying to do, reshape the seat.

Without the clear plastic cover, the foam will get wet and subsequently so will your backside.
I don't believe any aftermarket seats use any type of protection to foam.
