sportster seat on cb650 with pic
« on: September 02, 2008, 06:12:23 AM »
had to do some modes but I have been asking for a picture for a while so I had to try it myself....still might do some other stuff to it...not sure yet but here is what it looks like after some mods....and by some mods...cut the front sportster seat pan and spliced the frnt of the cb pan to the back because the sporster seat pan is to narrow up front...among other things. take a peak

I'd like to see a picture of the whole bike and a pic from the back to get a better idea of how it looks.  I think it would look better with an after-market fender but I'll wait to see the pics to judge.
