Custom Seat from Pirate!!!!! ***Love those guys***

Post by gcrepe »

Ok ---so after seeing Fretman's custom seat from Pirate, I had to do one for my Italia!!

I just received it and I am FLOORED by the workmanship! Jay @ Pirate was AMAZING and based on an emailed design, they pretty much not only recreated it, but made it even more beautiful than I expected.

Are you kidding m? How cool is this seat?! Can't wait to show it off more on the road. (Must improve riding skills) ;)

I said a long time ago "Who'll be the first with a italia to get a italian flag as their seat"

You win.

Nice job! I gotta hand it to Pirate, they do really excellent work. If I ever decide to customize my seat they'll be getting a call...

Thanks so much, you all. Yep--- Pirate's work is just AMAZING. I mean, they got it down to the itty bitty detail, without many questions, and such a quick turnaround time.

I'm SO happy I decided to go with them. Fretman's gorgeous leather seat is what did it. I had to go custom after seeing that beauty.

Yay! Can't wait to show it off on a ride soooooon........

O, that is FANTASTIC. :shock: I love it! Now, off to peep at your FLICKR. :D

I'm so happy that Pirate is getting lots of business from us ModBuds during this recession. Jay has always supported the scooter scene, sponsoring rallies all over the place, and his work is just extraordinary.

Thanks again, all. Yeah---- I can't say enough about Jay @ Pirate. He's da man. This seat just gave a whole new oooomph to my Italia (as if it needed anymore...)

Anyone out there considering doing their seat........don't look any further than Pirate. ;)

Thanks BeachBuzz for posting the link!

They're in NY. I'm in San Diego and I thought the turnaround time for my seat was pretty speedy considering! You'll love them! Tell them you saw Gabriela's seat "Ciao Bella" on the forum!

I had them do a simple recover and rebuld of my Stella seat. I wish I had thought to have them do more custom stuff for my club or something instead. BUt I love the new old seat. it's a totally different beast and was worth every penny.

BTW yours looks great!
