uwe_rayong Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hi,my cat used the PVC on the scooter seat to sharpen her claws. Now I need a new PVC cover. Seen plenty of shops but not asked yet. I like to have a rough idea before I ask, so what do I have to expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrry Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Not a lot but if the seat is a little old it may be worth checking on what it costs at a bike shop to relace one. New foam makes things much more comfortable and it may be not much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezzra Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 "Seen plenty of shops but not asked yet. I like to have a rough idea before I ask, so what do I have to expect?" Sometime I think to my self, are those guys for real? it's not like you're buying a diamond ring or something, and how much can a recover of a seat can cost? like a million baht?

uwe_rayong Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Thanks all for the answers. @ezzra I had no idea what is the normal price, because I asked here. I thought not more then 800-1000 THB for the task, now I know it is only around 250 THB. I don't haggle a lot, if I think the a quoted price is acceptable I accept it, otherwise I say Thank You and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLang Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Get the whole seat remolded to suit you. Get a nice cover, nice stitching. Probably 500b or around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Yes indulge the nether region. Get one of those vented mesh covers too. The boys will thank you. Cat resistant too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvs Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Or if you want to go all the way make it a white color cover,easy to spot where you have parked your scooter and it won't burn your boys when you park it in the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We bought a Fino with a beige seat, the material didn't like UV and perished a little after 6 months, no idea why. It was cool to the bum though.
