John, I found the best seat covers are done by a firm called Dis-covers. They do the full range with the Honda logo.


 tried to order a seat cover,

 Dis -covers number is unobtainable,so sent an e-mail,

 still awaiting a reply,
hope the phone fault is a one off,

Try reproduction decals in the US/Canada. The honda stuff is not listed on their site due to Honda US getting snotty but they still do them if you email them


 thanks Bryan,,

I found this site ,and ordered a set from him,cost £35 including registered post ,

will let you know how they are ,

ewan.looking good,

 see you have avon boots,

 it looks a work of art,

as for the oil,a semi-synthetic 10-40  should be perfect,

I am waiting with bated breath to see how it runs and handles !!

thanks Mike and Trigger,

 just searched Dis-cover,it could be Stroud in Glouscester.,

local to me,although the cost of £30 including P&P is very reasonable,

willing to support local industry !!

Paul, it even works better it you pop it in the oven at 200 for an hour. It then becomes fuel and fluid resistant.


in the past I have dunked the cans in a bucket of boiling water,works quite well !!


 electric or gas ???



BTW  I sometimes use a heat gun to heat items before spraying,I think the paint fixes better !!!

Fahrenheit you nutter  :) :) :) :)

its his choice of style,

 its not my idea of a cafe racer,

 but

 the exhausts look special,not unlike Moto gp pipes,
