| Luimoto - Repsol Seats Skins Luimoto
Very nice craftsmanship and looks durable enough for day-to-day riding.
I was planning on trying to mount the skins myself, but I ran into problems. Not with the product, but with the items needed to install. I seem to have misplace my staple gun and all the ones my friends had to offer, just didn't have the power to punch through that tough plastic. I didn't want to buy a new staple gun as the one I have is pretty nice (for a staple gun), so I decide to just take it into a local guy and have him do it for me.
I wasn't sure how it was going to look, so I purchased a set of used seats that I found on eBay. That made it easy to swap out the seats for some comparison shots.
Tell me what you think. I figure since I have the nice matching rear cowl on there I probably wouldn't use these much. But after getting them on the bike and seeing how good they look, they are already growing on me. Can't wait to see them out in the sun tomorrow when I ride into work.

| Re: Luimoto - Repsol Seats Skins Ah, long story. I recently regained the right to post here so I've been posting up some reviews I had in the past.
I didn't get all these things at one time but over the past year and a half of owning the bike. I got some great friends in great places and have meet some more great friends along the way. Even got invited to park at the Repsol tent for last year's MotoGP event at Laguna Seca!
