Can anyone tell me what the Honda seat covers from Thailand are like.
I need to purchase one for my MT125.

I am assuming you are talking about those pit ones Chippy?
Bought a few. Mostly OK and good value for money.
Although bought a 79 PE175 one once and had to get a bit of extra skirt sown on. Everyone since then OK but.
Worth a punt I reckon.

I recently got seat covers for an IT & DT2 from prime8racing, they both seem excellant. I forget the cost but at the time I thought it was pretty good and delivery was about a week.
At the last vtr vinduro he ( Mike ) was there with some gear including a big box of seat covers.
I dont think I'd look at china type covers myself now.
