Title: Pannonia T5 (1967) The end of the restoration!
Post by: Christian Arapu on August 29, 2019, 09:23:50 PM
I posted this bike here almost 5 years ago.
Can you imagine how much energy, motivation, dedication, time, blood, sweat and money i invested in it?
now it paid off having this beauty by my side! 
Now i know so much about this brand!! my braing is like a god damn library of technical info, hints and short-cuts about anything Pannonia related :D

Christian, you could try R K Leighton, Motorcycle Seats here in the UK, www.rk-leighton.co.uk  They have been making covers and seats for many years and really know their business. They may already have a pattern for your seat, if not they will still be able to do the job but may need the old cover to copy.
