Why don't You Order a Seat Cover from These Guys and do it Yourself. I did, It took about 45 Minutes and I'm Very Happy with it.

I would just recover it, but I want to put in all new foam as well because the foam in there now has been exposed to the elements.
Thanks
*EDIT* I just looked at that link and I guess it comes with a 1in. foam pad along with the cover to hid the damaged foam. Interesting...I will research this further. Also, to make sure I don't have a different seat or anything, the picture I am including is my 1982 650G. That is a 650G (or GZ I guess), seat correct?

They don't show anything for an 83 GS750E. I'm assuming the GS750 TZ/TD are different. They do show a cover for the GS1100E though.

I'm almost certain it was P&K that I bought a GS850 fibreglass seat pan from, as I passed through Brum (or next to it) about 30 years ago. It's still going strong, but needs recovered again. Been meaning to drop them a line to see if they're still doing them. If they are, it's excellent VFM.Failing all else this guy in the uk does a range of seat covers that are exelent quality and period correct he also sells the spiked strip that makes fitting very secure https://www.pandkclassicbikes.co.uk/

That B&H is a very nice looking company marvinsc;how do you like the seat cover's quality ?
