Lookin' good!

Can you give us some info on the seat you fabbed up? What is that tank from? I'm chopping up an XS360 tank for a seat, and it looks a lot like yours.
 
Sorry, it's been a bit since I've been on here. Just made my way over to the Tanks and Seats forum and discovered that it is indeed an XS360 tank.

Looks great. It's really encouraging me to get back out and work on my bike.

Did you ever think about attaching the cafe seat directly to the frame and ditching the stock seat pan? I'm not sure what I want to do right now.

i wanted to keep it easy and be able to swing the pan open to get to the battery easy , but after riding it and it being wider then i wanted...its a bit uncomfortable after about an hour or two of riding. so now im rethinking on a seat and how to make it quick release

I've considered placing a small battery under the cafe seat, but I'm not sure how I would access it. Perhaps you could place a hinge on one side so that it flips up?
