That looks to be coming along rather nicely. Let me guess, the seat is already at your buddy's house that made the custom seat for your mini-bike?

Thanks again Steel for fixing my pics .. What am I doing wrong ? Anyway here is what is happening today , I took all my rear axle stuff to the Machine shop today and went over my ideas with Chris he agreed with me and said it should be done by Tuesday , I also started on the cutting the seat today the whole idea is to keep the stock hinge and seat lock so this is all the further I got ..

I wish I could see the pics at work- I will subscribe to this thread and view it when I get home- I am about to start on a 750 twin cafe project for my room mate this next week- I do have GSXR 1000 USD forks for it- for a bit of a modern look as well.
