Seat sizes

[clutch22]

there's two different sizes of seats for the 250r, right?

I think that's why we couldnt get the wrinkles out of my Nac's seat cover, cause it was possibly made for a bigger seat.

Is this right?

if it is stock foam its the same for all years

Incorrect...the 88-89 have thicker foam..but you can still install the seat cover.

I actually think your wrong. I think there are two different size seats. One of the years have thicker seat foam.

Ya there's plenty of material to mess with, but the Nac's covers are made of a real thick vinal plastic material, w/e it is ... but anyway, it wont stretch or anything and so we couldnt get it to work with the shape of the seat, and i figured it had somethin to do with the different heights of seats

where its wrinkled it looks like there no foam there try puting some foam and you should be fine.

Yeah, it definitely looks like you have have 86 height foam and the nacs cover was meant for 88 height foam.

Did you cover over your old cover or take it off and recover it.

Most seat covers are made for 88 height foam because they stopped making the shorter foam a while ago. Ceet and any other foam and OEM foam is only available in 88 height, even if you order an 86 seat they come with 88 foam now.

hmm.. that sucks... it probly doesnt make that much difference but i like to sit as low as possible.

If your concerned about looks you can pick up some foam and trim it and glue it to the stock foam and make it higher. Up to you I guess.

I'm with you sit as low as possible, I wouldn't throw foam in there cuz that would make it look like junk IMO.

I'd say take off the front part, get a couple buds and STRECH and STAPLE, with all you 4 guys got.

Good luck man.

I dont mean half *** it. If you do it right you could make the seat look perfect with the addition of foam.
