You still need something underneath the seat to keep from throwing water/gravel/small children into your carbs.

I will keep that in mind next time I ride through Chucky Cheese's!

Thanks again for the advice, couldn't get any better than that.

Don't rip it until you try it. They serve beer and plenty of MILFs









j/k I am too chicken to try it.

We took the brood there last weekend as a customer gave me a $60 gift card to the place.

After the trip I can't help but think that I must have pissed him off somehow.
 
Okay I think I'm going to order this, what do you guys think?

Have you checked your local craigslist? It might be worth it to find it local and not have to ship it.

Dude, Where are you?
I understand wanting to keep personal info off the interwebz, but if you fill in your profile, "where is twistekeys", maybe we can recommend a supplier in your area. ;)
 
Here some pics of the process in making my metal seat pan!
