    Hi Guys,
    I'm looking for a source for a "heat embossed" seat cover for my 1977 CR250.
    This cover was stock on my 1978 250OR and appears to be the original on my 1977.
    I'd prefer not to use a smooth cover if possible.
    I appreciate any help.

    I don't think any one is selling the cover with embossing in it. I have been looking for one also for my 78 250CR if you find one post here where you got it.

    Hi Guy's,

    I emailed back and forth with the guy selling this cover on Ebay for a
    75 Husqvarna, regarding using this cover on my 77 CR250.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HUSQV...?pt=Motorcycle

    The seller offered a full refund if it didn't fit and said he would make a new one from my old cover if necessary.
    So I went ahead and bought one
    I got the cover and tried putting it on yesterday.

    Several problems:

    1. Skirt isn't long enough front to back to fit the corners properly.

    2. Overall the skirt is to short and difficult to hold while pulling and
    holding in place.

    3. Husqvarna "H" is printed to low on the back panel and actually
    partially wraps under the back of the seat.

    I sent pictures to the seller and discribed the troubles I'm having with it.
    Hopefully he will follow through with his offer to refund and make me a new one.

    I'll keep you guy's posted.
    Ron
