MFH (model factory hiro) makes some great adhesive, suede-like material. I'd highly recommend it. It comes in a variety of colors.

Something else you can try which works really well is embossing powder. Get some, airbrush a base color on the seat, then apply the embossing powder, tap off the extra, let it dry, and then airbrush on a top coat to seal it. I cant post pics now but it looks good.

Re: Yamaha M1 Test Carbon.

You can also use something called "microballoons". Spray the paint, dust with these, shake, and then spray again after drying. Instant "texture". You can also use it for a "cast" appearance of metal. It's particularly useful for the RC211v's engine block.
