Looks good even with stock back wheel.
The sunshine will keep you motivated
Is that the old skateboard brat seat?

So I was able to make the seat bracket last night. Girlfriend was in town so i couldn't work on it for a couple of days. It attaches in the front to the bolts where the gas tank mounts and mounts in the rear to where the fender bolted up.
Finally got a decent weld in too! LOL It also is in a spot where no one will ever see it!
Going with my budget build. I got an old leather jacket from Goodwill to make the seat cover out of. I may, later, go to the junk yard and grab so black leather from a car or SAAB (I have a SAAB and love the seats
) and recover it with stronger leather.
Also I got a petcock with the bike when I got it and I was wonder what was the make of it? I wanted to also see if I can use it on the Savage so i can actually have an Off setting.

That old petcock is most likely a DR650 petcock. It is a vacuum operated petcock and has the same Fuel, Reserve and Prime settnigs that ours does....don't waste your time trying to use it. The DR650 folks do the same thing we do.....they install a genuine Yamaha Raptor manual petcock.
