Laverda Tiddler - Seat Recovering?

[chris78jota]

I'm messing about with the 1954 Laverda 75 Sport at the moment - it's time for its annual move from the conservatory back into the cold nasty garage for the summer.

Does anyone know if there is a specialist seat re-coverer anywhere who works with these 1950's type Italian seats?

Its a funny mix of rubber sheet and a thin leatherette cover!

I've seen plenty of beautiful (clearly brand new) ones on pictures of restored MV Agustas etc, so there must be someone doing it. (tried the web etc)

Very good reputation

You can surely get help from Francophone guys if necessary

Sant?

Some great stuff on that site...

I had the seat on my little Mondial redone by Leightons in Birmingham - they were very helpful and modified it slightly for me as I was more interested in comfort for the Motogiro d'Italia than absolute originality.
