Since I cant really ride right now I decided that White wont be Mable's final color. I found a decent brilliant blue at my local hardware store and being partial to Blue decided to do a color change. I will have it professionally painted as the final touch to her build. So far I've done the side covers, headlight bucket, and the fuel door, I will need to fix the dent in the tank before I paint it. Here's a pic of the first side cover I painted.
I know, I know, FUGLY seat...I'm going to put up with the
FUGLY SEAT for a bit and see how it sits for as a long distance seat. I sit down into it more than the stock seat and a titch farther back. I have plans to build a solo seat from 1 of the seat pans I have, retaining the stock hinges and lock, and use the front bucket part of that seat and redo the cover thats on it. That way I'll have 2 seats...1 up and 2 up.
