I'm with jackwagon on the studs in the seat mate, don't think it would work on this build. I'm not entirely sold on a white seat mate have you got a black one you could pop on to see what it looks like, I personally think a black seat would break up the green and white a bit better

Leon.........thank ya kindly bro.. Robbo......cheers mucka, regarding the seat......i`m not gonna do them as studs, i was going to recess the pinheads below the seat line and make it look like sunken buttons......to give it that cushioned look!!, but i`ve had second thoughts on that one now anyway.......as for colour....`ermmmm  , i havn`t got a spare black seat i`m afraid fella B- |

Ok another small U/D but what seems like something thats taken forever to do!!!  I`ve tried to accommodate some of ya ideas chaps..........Dicky i know you liked the white seat and Robbo you opted for a Black option and i still wanted to keep a section of Green as well...........so.....i came up with this    I cut out some shapes from some 0.5 sheet and added them to the seat itself......a bit like the custom seats whereby they add some raised leather/material to a plain seat too give it some character......took me yonks to get them all just about even!!!!!!! Also started adding some Black plumbing.......still got some more to add nearer the end   Believe it or not even the seat painting gave me grief.......this bike is the devils re-incarnation i tell ya!!!  First i primed it, then masked it,then hand brushed the black.............the black seeped under the tape and it looked shite!!!, after a rub down and a re-prime it fell onto the garden path and ferked up THAT coat of primer!!!!  , i rubbed it down again and this time i finally got one over the bastard!! ...........need a another gloss coat and then i`ll flatten the Black back!! Thanks fellas........not much but i been doin` other tings |

Thank ya kindly Tony Ok...pretty self explanatory really. front end partly done (needs a tidy up yet tho...and the lights), the bars re-done and this is the angle(ish) that it will sit once i make up the side stand...........i think a bike looks soooo much meaner on it`s side than on the central or paddock stand imho .......sorry about me glasses case holding her up but it was the softest think to hand Hope ya like so far   Thanks for looking as always fellas......gettin` there gradually |

Dicky...LMAO ,thanks mucka ........still gotta load of them little mundane jobs to do but once the plumbing goes in and everything is in situ she should look ok, gonna substitute the kit side stand (plastic) for a brass rod one so it will be safer regarding holding her up.........i`ll recess the rod into the base and then make an artificial footpad to wrap around the bottom where it meets.......that way it`ll look like it`s just sitting naturally Stuart.......thank you my friend, if i can lure some of you armour boys over here then i must be doing somink right , thanks for the kind words bro |
