Once I get the seat pan back, I"ll actually bend the sides in for a smoother bottom.  Im still going to shape the pan a bit for a smoother shape.

Then after its painted I"ll put 1/8 winshield washer hose around the edges. Then pull the stock cover over it and use snaps along the sides to keep it in place...

Well thats the plan anyways... I"ll put up a proper build thread for bike soon...

Thanks Noel! 

I can't take credit as a local shop did it.  They were recommended by Brad (owned).  They did the seat on his 350.

what is the shop and what did it cost?

The shop is called Kent Auto Upholstery in Indianapolis (southside) and I built the seat pan and paid for foam/vinyl.  They charged $150 to make the seat.

I took a piece of 1/4" aluminum to the upholster and a picture of a bike from the wrenchmonkees and he gave me this.

that's a nice seat!  even nicer that the upholsterer got it right just from a pic!  did you shape/bend the aluminum pan at all? got pics?
