hey wab... that's a sexy ass seat.. (pardon the pun LOL). ass... seat... get it?! LOL.. Mate, quick quessie though.. have you bought it? If so, can you please tell me how the seat upholstery mates to the seat base? there's no button/studs etc... wondering how they get it to look so neat and trim and fitted.. could do with a similar finish on my BSA solo hump race seat for my "Codename: Rasputin" project... studs are nice.. but this clean finish trim is super classy! any light you can shed please?

Two wheels too many !!! But I finally had to get a replacement for my19 year old Citroen XM Estate - still going strong but petrol and getting a little bit tatty. Had to be another Citroen - this time a Diesel C5 - hope it serves me as well as the XM.
Oily - simples, the cover is fixed with normal upholstery glue. Most auto upholsterers will handle this for a few pounds / dollars. It's also very simple to apply yourself - as long as you have the right shape for the material.
My AJS 7R seat has the whole of the rear hump upholstered - as the originals.

Ha! You got it, brother. She's a little jaundiced (why she looks orange) and bruised up in the face from coming out so fast. Little girl just shot right out of there!
Congrats man! We had to wait 10 days to take ours home 10 years ago, due to meconium aspiration, venitlators, MRI, CT scans the works, but everything worked out in the end. Now I'm heading towards the teenage years.... will definitely be taking more long road trips.

Thanks, guys. Our second had to spend a week in NICU because of meconium aspiration, too. That was 2 years ago. Man, that was scary shit. She was the "healthiest" baby in NICU. Broke my heart to see the other little babies in that unit. This new addition also has to have light therapy (a flat paddle that straps to her back with a band of fabric around her torso). The thing has a big power pack with a fan and a light of its own. Very sci-fi indeed. I dig the blue glow at night! :-D It is funny to see the thick power cord. It looks like it's coming out her butt.

So, got Wind of a $150 non-titled 1976 RD400 (thanks to member bbillington). Went and picked it up. Two bottom ends, one top end, some random Keihin carbs, complete roller (minus front and rear calipers), a set of DG pipes, two wiring harnesses, and a box full of parts.

And Congrats on the new "purchase" Reject. They look like little glow worms with that blue light.
