    You can buy generic seats like that all day long dirt cheap on eBay.

            The upholstery looks fabricated as well. Maybe he built the cowl around the seat.

                Gotcha. Picked that bike up yesterday out of Texas, and happened to come across this post when looking for some info on the chain drive conversion. Was curious about some of the work done on it.
