product description
Universal foam for benches
Universally usable special foam in saddlery quality , ideal for motorcycle seat construction.
The KICKSTARTER foam, which has been specially designed for use as a bench core and has been tried and tested for years, comes from Germany and has a density of 140 kg / m³, so that it offers outstanding comfort even with a relatively small thickness (see additional comfort pads below).
It can best be cut and shaped with an electric hand bread knife (e.g. from Moulinex, see photo) and a belt sander and then e.g. with Pattex both with each other (to put larger blocks together) and with the existing bench foam
for upholstery (see photo), as well as glue on our bench base plates.
A building instruction with lots of useful tips for building your motorcycle seat can be found on our
KICKSTARTER page (see logo for address) under the “TIPS” menu item. We can also include a printout of these instructions in the scope of delivery upon request:
