laverda Seat on DOHC CB750. Anyone?

TxAg
Kicking around ideas regarding seats for this build and came up w/ an idea I wanted to see what you guys think.

Anyone ever put on a DOCH CB750 79-83 or seen one/have a picture of a Laverda style seat on the bike? Here's the type of seat I'm talking about below.



Since the rear of the frame bends up and isn't flat on these CB's it makes it awkward to fit the many available seats out there. with the shape of the seat being what it is w/ the flaps I figured why not go w/ a seat that would cover it and still mount up w/ a little work? Now the seat above is a little short but may work if you could extend it or get another tank or deal w/a small gap??

thoughts/pics?
