Does anyone know where I can

Hey to ALL ! Does anyone know where I can purchase a STUDED PASSENGER SEAT COVER for a 1997 Honda Valkyrie Standard??? I have a new Honda Studded stock seat & I cannot find a cover for my passenger seat. All I want is a cover & not a new passenger seat. There is a company ( and I know I cannot mention their name ) out there that sells covers but I would have to buy the driver seat cover to get the passenger seat cover. Since I do not need a cover for the driver seat it would not be practical for me to buy it that way. The passenger seat & the sissy bar pad are in excellent condition except for the cover material. It would cost me $99.00 that way & I would be buying something I do not need. I also want a cover for the sissy bar pad. The sissy bar pad sells for $30.00 so I figure the passenger seat cover should cost about the same. Can anyone help me with this delima? Thanks in advance. tommy t IBA 1990

Don't know if this is the same place you know of, but...

Mustang seats sells the driver, passenger, and sissy bar pad cover...

Tandy Leather sells the studs for about $6 for 100. And you can push then in and bend the prongs with you thumbs.

Of course you will have to remove/reinstall the cover and mark where to place the studs.

After bending them with my thumbs, I place them on a hard surface and tap the prongs with a small hammer to set them into the hollow base for ease of replacing the cover.

Hey Black Dog... Just got a reply back from them stating it is a one piece unit...?? seems weird to me. Did not sound freindly in their reply. May be just me though. When I talked to their sales person the other day he was totally unfriendly. Sign of the times I reckon. Thank you for the info. tommy t IBA 1990

Went to HONDALINE & found the WHOLE sissy bar pad for $35.95 which is FAR better than just buying a cover for $30.00. Now all I need is the Pasenger seat. Hooooraaaay!!! I am going to contact my local M/C dealership & see if they can find one for me. tommy t IBA 1990

Well, I called my dealership here with no luck. The Bike is 13 years old & I can understand that. I then called Dillon Brothers. The salesman there saw the part but did not have it. He gave me the part number & looked it up on the Internet & found a place that showed they have it in stock. He gave me their telephone number & I called them. They have a brand new one still in the original box & has never been opened. I am sending them a check & they are going to ship it out to me ASAP. Cool, eh?
So, that takes care of that. Ride safe ALL. tommy t IBA 1990

If you are still needing he passenger cover I might have a deal for you. I could be interested in the drivers cover so we could look at splitting it. Drop me a PM and we can discuss it.

Hey TYBME. I alrerady ordered one today from a different company. I received an e-mail from the company that sells the covers & they stated that it is now a one-piece cover...not individual for the driver's seat & the passenger seat. Real Bummer!!! I have done business with them on four different motorcycles but I never will again. Sorry to say that I won't be able to help you on this one. tommy t IBA 1990
