Recovered my seat

I recovered my seat as the po placed some electrical tape covering the splits in the vinyl.

I'm trying to figure out how to reupholster my Honda dream seat but a little nervous.
Any tips? Looks like I'll probably have to replace the foam too as its falling apart. Any tips at all, photos of process would be appreciated!

Just reupholstered my two extra seats...

I have a blue 1965 Dream with the factory red seat. It came with two extra seats, one solo and one twin, that I just had redone. Initially, the solo was white leather but done poorly. The twin was a lightish, almost teal blue that really didn't match the bike. Three days and a few $$ later... voila!...
