Picked up a 75 with pretty low miles. Does this seat material look original to you guys? I dont see an analogous reference in the literature I am seeing... any thoughts?

Agree that the vinyl will wear longer. But it’s unbearable in the south to sit on a vinyl seat when the top has been off for 20 seconds and the sun is out! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
