    I HOPE that's just a wrinkle/fold at the riser.... Otherwise it's a terrible stitching job there.......

    My seat is OEM, just an after market sissy bar.

    Did you have to take the original vinyl off? Or does it fit over the old vinyl (my vinyl is in good shape, just split in one spot)?

    you remove the original which is a good time to put in a gel pad if you wanted .
