I don't know, I kind of like the "HUGE" signals. I do need a brake light of some sort.
I may grab a midnight fender and do it again. I think a black fender would blend in better with the frame. I've got a pile of other things to finish, I'll come back to the seat and fender later.

Yeah, nice job!

I think you might be able to get a set of 11.5" for an HD Sportster, and they should fit.

Good work!

Nice work! I hope you are planning on ditching the HUGE signals. I wish I had your seat modifying skills...

I got the seat on ebay.....they didn't know what bike it was from...so the price was cheap. Some Harley. I just cut a little out of the front with a dremel. It made it fit the tank nice. I made a tongue and bolted it onto the bottom, to fit the part in the frame. Just bolted the back to the fender. There are threaded holes in the bottom...at some piont I'll finish it.

The shocks are regular xs11 standard shocks, 12.5 inch I think. I'm looking for a virago 1100 set, I believe they are 11.5 and fit...??
I'll take it out in the driveway on Sunday and get a side shot. I tried one in the garage and you couldn't see anything. The bike isn't even close to done,It's been in pieces for a few months. but a least it looks like a motorcycle again.

love it!!! where did you get the seat! and i want a side shot too!!! (of the bike, to be specific)

[Wildkat]

I LIKE IT!

Would love to see a sideshot if you get a chance...

What length are your shocks?

New seat and fender mod without cutting the frame. What do you think of that? Total cost....$30 for the seat, nuts and bolts, and one extra fender.
