Looking good so far. I'd be curious to see how the stock tail looks with that new seat. It would hide those frame rails better.

Hi Clem , stock tail arrived brocken , and the seat is shorter anyway so this wasn't a posibilitie.
Frame rails will be a little bit more hiden by the new plaques number (bigger than the black proof on the pics)

Thanks for posting 8)

Tank looks well wicked! I like how you disguised it's original shape to conform with the look you wanted, great idea.

Not criticizing, but is there a way to lower that seat into the hump you built? Make it more flush? Looks good.
