Yup, got them and HT Moto as well.  I'll wait and see what my guy says and then think of overseas or interstate options.

Email them. They can do pretty much whatever you want. If you want their 695 but want it quilted you just have to ask. Not a problem.

This was done by MotoK Seats in Greece for $30 with another $20 for shipping.

Came out great and they have a wide variety of materials to choose from including leather. They were great to deal with. You really cant beat this price. They do other bikes in addition to Ducatis.

That is beautiful - I must have one for my S2R...

You got a DP Seat then sent it to Greece, or ordered the cover (specs please - how exactly did you order it?)  Thanks!

I didnt want to change my DP Comfort Seat so I bought a used seat on ebay then ordered the cover from Moto-K in Greece. They sent it and I had it put on by a local upholstery guy. Didnt have to send the seat to them although that is also an option but it's cheaper to have it installed locally then pay for all that shipping of a large seat like that.

Here it is, the finished article:




What do people think?

Awesome.
How much did that cost and where did you get that done?

[StephenC]

$320 (including having it posted back to me as I couldn't be bothered risking all the speed cameras going back to Sydney to pick it up). It was done by Sydney Motor Trimmers. They are in Alexandria (and the parking is terrible).

Great. Thanks

 Personally I would go with a different color on the stitching, but I think it works with the rest of your bike, beyond that I think it look fabulous! Very nice work!

I was going for white stitching, but the guy doing it suggested red.  He said it would not get grubby, like a white stitch would.  Overall I'm happy, though I still think I prefer the one in my original inspiration photo, possibly as the quilting is a smaller patch on the seat.

LOVE IT !! And love the red stitching I think the guy was right and it looks great.
