No help here, but I made a purple felt seatcover for my CR500 to be snazzy at the dunes. Went to the craft store, bought like $5 in material, then went to town with a staple gun. Worst case, find some fabric you like and make your own.

I had Leopard skin seat in the early '90's, took it to a local upholsterer that was a racer and we dug through his pattern books until I found what I wanted.

Lets just go hunt one! Leopards are cool, but 125s are cooler. Plus the story you would get

That's awesome. I made a leopard seat cover for my bmx bike and painted the frame hot pink when I was in Highschool just to have something different.

You must be thinking awning covers not seat covers.

I mean, it was no leopard print, but the seat itself turned out great.

"Snazzy" is the proper term for that look.
But what's with the extra 2 X 6's on that picnic table for??

Thanks, I can't find a closeup pic of just the seat but it looked decent (if purple velvet is your fabric of choice, anyway.) The 2x6's are the loading ramps, my truck was parked at the beach at Silver Lake and I didn't have the tailgate on it so we could fit 2 bikes in a shortbed 1500.

Stankdog definitely has me looking for anther CR500...
