    I found a couple aftermarket Blue Seat Covers for 87 VFR700 but no pics I would like to know what it would look like before spending $70+. If anyone has pics or info it's much appreciated.

    These are what I've come up with in BLUE (saddleman seat covers) & (sport skins)

    I allso found Blue vinyl 2 way stretch good grade but I don't know if it will conform, I don't need wrinkles so I'm still trying to figure it out. captb

    I did mine

    $15 for some marine vinyl at the fabric store. I went w/ black.
    Borrowed a staple gun. My advice use a heat gun or heat up the vinyl in a car in the sun or something. The part right after the tank, the lowest part, stretch that real good and you'll be fine I started at the front and worked my way around the sides and towards the back. stretch it really good, I pulled pretty hard. Here are some pictures.

    If you notice it's a little wrinkled near that lower part, that's all worked itself out now.
