So I'm thinking I'll see the tank and seat together and have that "oooooo", "ahhhhhhh" moment. Not the case, quite disappointed. The seat isn't going to work. The tank needs to rise and come forward a bit. I have some ideas for mounting brackets, etc. Also the seat will be two piece. One flat pad for the seat, and one for the back mounted to the tank. This will make for a much better transition. One that seems designed.
On a good note....it sure was nice sitting in that seat, rock solid. I got to measure the pedals, shift through the gears, mock the steering wheel. Felt awesome. Overall, a day of learning, some cool, some not so cool. Oh well.
Im kinda glad to read that... I love the rear tail piece, but placement is kind of awkward. I agree, it needs to be higher, and a little more forward. Maybe some side panels to blend the tail into the front? Some form of side skirting to tie it all together. Make it look like your IN in, not ON it... All in all great work on refabbing that tail.
