Love it!  I'm going to make a video and tag it to that one LOL.  He reminds me of my old neighbor who used to kick his Harley for 20min to get it to go....Well start after kicking it that long he would be too tired to ride so he just stood there revving it up for a while and then go back inside.

That seat looks too comfortable, for a cafe racer. Your guy did a really nice job. May I ask how much it cost?

Well he charged me $16.00 for materials and said his work isn't good enough to sell, but its good enough give away!  I gave him a good tip though.  I'm going to make another seat without the rear cowl with room for a passenger I can swap out really fast so I can take my wife along on a ride.  My friend who did my upholstery said he would show me how to do it my self so I'm lookin forward to that.

Not good enough to sell?!?!  That seat is perfect!!!! I dont think it could look any better! You know after looking at your side covers,being flat black and all,they look pretty good.I was disappointed they extended out of the "triangle" of the frame,but im starting to change my mind.Do you have on for the oil tank side?

TOOL'S I will take plenty of pics during the process, Can't wait!  Mc Ribs I'm runnin without a cover on the oil tank, I like the look of it but I still need to remove the mounting points for the cover.  I'm with you though on the other side I wish the cover was shorter, Guess I'll have to cut it too!
