That's a pretty darn nice seat!

So nice, in fact, that I don't believe it's your first.  :D

Did you make it part by part? Tail section made separately, then glued to seat pan?
Looks cool!

Man that is HOT. Nice work, details and steps would be cool.  ;D I agree that you need real clubman bars. Those look odd. My opinion :)

   I hope they dont get that popular really, cuz I like the idea that its still unique and different.

I agree, I would hate for them to become mainstream  :'( and see all the prices go way up on what is now a reasonably affordable hobby. I'm sure some of the guys who are making a business of it would like it but not me.

Yes, the rear section is looking great. Well done!
The seat matches your tank 100%!
