That seat really looks great, most of the seats i've seen look like hack jobs but that one is awesome.

Thanks Frank!

That is tiiiiiiight!! Awesome job. I want a new seat so bad and the only ones I like are bout $400 from Corbin. After looking at this and how it sits on there I think I am reaching for my credit card!!

Thanks!

I found it much cheaper to carve up a cheap seat and get it professionally recovered locally. Baldy's custom one-off Corbin was my inspiration for this seat I just didn't want the associated cost!:P

Wow that is a killer transformation. Let's see the rest of the bike! I think a more modern style wheel will really pull the bike together, but really nice work!

I hope my KZ project turns out half as nice as your's did, :unsure: I like all the updates with the dual lights and all the other stuff. You did a great job, you should be proud of that ride for sure.
