Alrighty..update time..

I bought a Late fifties singer sewing machine, did a mini resto on it, and then made a new seat cover.

Hope you like

And the seat.

Looking great man! I might go with a similar front fender on mine. Nothing like riding in the Pacific Northwest to convince you of the need for a front fender. ;D

nice job on the bike overall. I really dig the stance on your bike, lowering the forks a bit made a big difference. Your bike has made me give cb650's a second look.

Here is a few shots!

Sooo, was the nightmarish event trying to start a CB650 on a semi cold day? Or did you break your ankle trying to kick start it?
