North West custom seat makers

[everywherevirtually]

Does anyone know of any motorcycle seat makers in the North West that could create something like this?

Naturally it would be from scratch as the existing sea attaches to the rear fairing and subframe.

Thanks in advance.

Try Coopers Upholstery at The Old Bank in Everton Valley,Liverpool.

They've done a few good bike seat recoverings and custom seats for local riders,me included.
My old mate Kev who owned/ran it has emigrated but I'm sure the lads there still do bike seats.
Look them up on Google for exact location directions and phone numbers.

+1 from me.
Guy at work recommended them after they did some work for him. They rebuilt an old trials bike seat for me, really good job.

Well I can't say I'm too impressed. I messaged them, told them what I wanted, provided photos and not a peep out of them. I'll move on and find someone else. So many businesses fail to capitalise on their web traffic. The mind boggles. They whinge about hard times and the recession and don't pay any attention to people that actually want to give them money #FAIL

Try the old fashioned method, pick up a telephone and speak to someone.
May be they're not very good with t'interweb, but shit hot with seats. You might find someone who is very good with t'interweb, but only shit with seats.

Who from the above recommendations are you talking about and moaning about ??

And as has been said above....why didn't you contact them via telephone or in person and discuss directly with a person what you wanted doing ??
Maybe they can't currently access the Internet.
Maybe they only do once a week.
Maybe their one web person is on holiday or off sick.

It seems incredible to me that you'd only electronically contact someone and not directly do so....and just as incredible that you appear to bestow 'web traffic' with such esteem and grandeur.....the Internet is only one of several means to an end,not the end itself.
Phone them up or call in.
