I used Vinyl from the market and a staple Gun.. on a Bandit 600 seat,

but try MandP or ebay for seat covers, or have a look for upholsterers in your area, we have a boat upholsterer that does an excellent job..

Yep, vinyl from Fabric Warehouse in Southampton (in my case) and an upholstry stapler from B&Q. £3 worth of vinyl covered both my Bandit seat and my brother's, and so far has lasted 15,000 miles (longer than the orignal) with no sign of wear.

If your seat cover is sewn (i.e. a single piece of vinyl won't fit) it's a bit harder.

you could also get some spray adhesive, and spray the foam beforehand this will make the fabric / vinyl adhere to it and follow contours and curves..

I have used the stuff with great results on car installs, you just have to take your time..
