Just got a nice sporty seat off ebay, but I don't think it's going to work out. Had no idea how much that would raise the seat height. I don't think it's going to work for my 5'1" wife's legs.
Thinking about just removing the pillion pad instead. Front seat is in pretty good shape. She's never going to carry a passenger, anyway, and I think she'd like the look better, too. I'm also removing the sissybar & fender brackets. Will weld all the extra holes and mount some mini signals directly on the fender.
But, what about the rear fender? I can move the reg/rect, wiring, etc., but I'm not sure how it'll look with all the bumps and stuff after all that relocation. Anyone have pics of their Savage rear fender after cleaning up the stuff under the pillion pad? I've even thought about some bondo or fiberglass moulding to smooth it all out, but not sure how it'd look. Oh, yeah, it's all getting a fresh coat of metallic charcoal gray after all this, so no worries about all that.
Open to suggestions. I'm handy with welding and grinding, too.
