    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Seat pan edge guard source?

I’m looking to reinstall the seat cover on my GS750 that I installed a few years ago. I’ve never been particularly happy with the way the installation job looked so it’s time to give it another go. The piece of rubber that kept the edge of the seat pan from ripping the bottom of the seat cover disintegrated so I would like to replace it while I’m there. Does anybody have any substitutes that they’ve used successfully? I saw some small rubber u-channel trim on Amazon but I’m concerned that it might create a bulge around the bottom of the seat pan.
 
Gorilla tape does wonders.The above source does ship to the US, Type in rubber u channel on ebay and many variations pop up

I wrapped some 1/4 foam around the edge. Worked great, but I don't know how it will hold up long term, but I'm optimistic.
