      Looks comfy, maybe add one of those tinted gauge cover shields to round out the front.

      Is that just the image to sell the seat?

        Jim, Is that the "barn find" you scored last year?

          No... that is not even my bike. It is as 2Wheel asked the picture posted on Ebay with the seat for sale. When I saw it I liked the look. Would be a very easy way to make the bike look more cafe. Winter has put a hold on my barn find restore. Including the carb repair. I am still going to give it a go in the spring. I have looked at them and the one with the bad pilot screw thread actually is missing the seat that the screw sits on at the bottom with the o ring. Those alumarods at best will fill the cavity but I really have nothing to lose anyway. Centering that screw is also going to be quite the challenge.
