Except for the part where I put the bodywork in the paint shop yesterday. Should have put that off until the seat showed up. So I had to see how the seat looked just sitting on the support frame.

As soon as I saw the quality on the seat this guy made for Dan P, I knew I wanted him to do mine. When you hold it in the sun the blue stitching just pops! Really looking forward to the paint work coming back.

He isn't starting on the paint for three or more weeks, so I needed to fit check my design and mounting. I have to say Chris at Tough Sides did an amazing job! I love the way the front of the seat follows the lines on the stock tank.

My new steering head bearings came today, and the fork seals yesterday. Now I have what I need to reassemble the forks and the front end. Soon she will be a roller again...

Even the angle of the rear shocks compliment the look of the tail section & tank. Looks factory. I’m lovin it.
