Need help finding a new seat for an old Eldorado?
« on: August 14, 2017, 05:42:30 PM »
I have two seats for my '72 Eldorado, the stock metal pan with foam that feels like it really is 40 years old.  and an after market King & Queen tour seat that feels like it doesn't have any foam.  I've tried to contact Corbin three times to make a new seat but they don't seem to want to answer me.  Is there anyone else out there in motorcycle land that make a new two person seat?  I can't find anything, not even with google LOL.  My skinny butt needs good padding.

You could put a new foam and cover on the old pan. Harper's sells both.

I always have a hard time trying to search for things on their website.  Just as well last time I tried to redo a seat I ended up selling the bike LOL.  I'm just not good at recovering seats.

This guy did my Ambo two up seat. Four inches of memory foam. I was very pleased.
