progress-9-detail-2.JPG (15512 bytes) Detail photo of the seat cowling. Seat is padded with 3/4" closed cell foam held down with high quality double sided tape. Fiberglass seat is riveted to a aluminum base plate which is then bolted to the frame under the rear hump. Self adhesive weather-strip foam was used as padding between the aluminum base plate and the frame tubes. Seat is also attached to the frame at the rear via a small metal tab and a rubber well-nut and screw.
progress-8-detail.JPG (15184 bytes) Detail showing the front frame area and tank. Tank has yet to have fuel filler installed. Paint took nicely on the frame tubes and give the bike a much more finished look. Durability of the paint seems good so far, it should harden further in the next few days.
