Nigh-Thawk Day 21
So, not much has been going on since paint. I'm not really sure where else to go with this bike. I added some new grips and I have plans to try to clean up the engine a bit. I have found an exhaust I'm interested in adding but it isn't really within my thin price range at the moment and I'm not sure if I'm going to make the investment. The seat is in the fore front of my brain at the moment. I found a seat cover on EBay which is plain and somewhat on the pricey side. I know I can get something cool if I use the upholsterer my shop uses, as he just made a pretty nice seat out of very little for the current project at the shop. Then there is what most people are in my ear about. DIY. I am certainly considering Doing It Myself since the bike has been so far customized at my hands, but I want the seat to stand the test of time and I'm no seamstress... Updates soon. Here are some pretty pictures to occupy your time.
