Seat work done.

This winter's project was to cut down my seat using the old tried and true method of an electric turkey knife and foam carpet backer, with a belt sander for shaping. In my particular case though, I had to build up the front of the seat to get rid of the LTD saddle effect. I cheated when it came to covering, I bought a Travelcade cover for a KZ1100, which has a mild step and looked like it would work on the seat pan, for a seat cover. Let me know what you think (yeah, I know I need to clean my garage).

I guess not. The pictures are too big. This will take some effort.

waterman, I don't mean to make fun of you but I can't help but laugh.:laugh:
It took me a LONG time before I could post pics, and even now sometimes I don't get it right.:ohmy:
I do, however, look forward to seeing the pics when I get home tonight. Good Luck.
Jim
