I need to get better pictures tomorrow.

I'm followingvwrabbit said:Started mocking up the seat. Didn't get pics as the dogs were being a-holes so I had to go in for the night.
The seat will only be about 6" wide and about 22" deep total. Seating area will end at about 16". That seems to be where I'm comfortable.
Green florist foam works great and you can shave it and sand it down nicelyvwrabbit said:Have the seat mocked up. Have to love heavy cardboard and a hot glue gun. Trying to get some old cans of spray foam to cooperate and fill in the voids. If this looks satisfactory, I'll cut out some plywood to use as a buck and cover with fiberglass.
Nice yeah mine isn't perfectly symmetrical either but close enough for a first time, next one will be made when I take off the plastics and make fit closer to the frame, I'll also have to make a seat pan at the same time, it's hard though cause I use it as a daily runner toovwrabbit said:Got the bar end mirrors today. So installed them. Also replaced the broken front brake light switch.
