I have used gorilla tape also you might want to round the edges of the tape when cutting. The only problem is after a while the tape when hot slides around it took about 2 years to start. Remove old tape clean the seat good and reapply new tape.

Seen some seats patched with gorilla tape that don't look to bad. They cut the tape larger than the tear and lapped the tape about a 1/4" to cover as needed, heat the tape with a heat gun carefully, then repeated covering the first layer with longer strips again hitting it with heat again and rubbing it with a cloth with some pressure. Apparently holds up pretty good.

I got to get myself some of that tape then, seeing so many recommendations. One of my seats has quiet a few cracks.

I bought this seat 3 years ago and been outside sitting in the sun. It's a michigan style. Model A-TMS444BL. Its been a great seat and plan to get more for my others. I paid $110. Comes with adjustable sliders and has a universal seat mount pattern.

It looks like a decent seat Evan, and it's still around $110 there. I'd really consider getting one if it was available here.

With gorilla tape you don’t get feathers all over the place like you do with duck tape!
Actually I think it has better backing and a little better adhesive. And it’s already black to match the seat!

Before finding out about the gorilla tape, I've been thinking of getting some of that "leather repair" self-adhesive material that I keep getting ads about on facebook. Some have a lot of good reviews. What I like about those is the large size, was thinking of covering the entire area of the seat. It just seems too miraculous.

If it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
