- June 21, 2013, 22:01:11 PMThere is a thread on here some place dealing with that, but I couldn't find it.
I used a heat gun to warm them up as much as possible, then used nylon string behind the badge. This worked to some extent, then I used a plastic "pry-bar" to CAREFULLY pry them off. This was followed by a lot of peeling-off of the adhesive, using goo-gone and a plastic scraper.
The tape they use is good stuff.

Greenbarn your spending a lot of time in that barn,thinking some fresh air might do you some good...
Yes, if it ever gets decent out, and I get some chores done, maybe I'll get time to go riding.... That's a thought.

- May 31, 2013, 16:13:18 PMHobbies...my wife said I need one since I'm retired from teaching and my real job...I don't have time for no stinkin' hobbies! Here is a pic of my stock solo seat with the mustang cover and factory skirt sewn on. The P.O. cut the bottom off the skirt for some unknown reason, so what I have is all I have. I added the fringe to help cover up where the skirt SHOULD be but isn't.

- May 31, 2013, 08:22:05 AMWell, all this talk on the forum about everybody getting Singh seats, Tractor Seats, and other stuff... Lambskin covers, Mustang seat covers etc....
Not wanting to be out-done, I decided to put on my very own, CUSTOM Tractor Seat on my 800. I'm going for a 1-of-a-kind look, all the while making sure it's still comfortable.
Still have to fab up a couple of brackets, or something, but I need to make one major decision first: I have to do is decide if I want to install it in the pilot position, or perhaps on the passenger spot??? Maybe I could just use a couple ratchet straps to try it out first.
