Yes the seat and the tank are from Dave's Legendary Motorcycles Shop and his ebay store. Good, quality stuff. The seat might be better served with some stiffer foam padding but if it turns out to be needed I can get that part done. Dave has been very helpful throughout the whole process and that was quite unexpected from an ebay vendor. I can recommend him with no reservations. You will have to be patient if you order something that needs to be fabricated as you will have to wait until he makes a run of that product. He's pretty up front about that though, and it was never a problem for me...or my bike. This is a 78 KZ650B. The only pointer I can offer is get friendly with a good shop and if you are lucky enough to run into guys like Kevin and Matt at Fatty's Cycle in Fortville Indiana then your worries are over. They did a fantastic job on this bike and let me Burger King it...I got to have it MY way! It was amazing how things came together on this bike..check out Kevin's Kick Ass reinforced swing arm! And he made the seat removable with two bolts! It still need s a few tweaks but I think it will be ready for the Rocker's Reunion later this month. VZ

Never liked that kind of cafe fairing, but I'm in love with the other 99% of the bike!
