Solo seats on any cb's?
« on: September 02, 2009, 06:16:02 PM »
Does anyone have pics of CB builds with solo seats (other than cafe bikes.) I was thinking of putting a solo seat on my build, but was wondering how it would look first.

This is my solo seat. Only one person can fit on it at a time. :)

What I really like about this bike is the exhaust (or lack there of.) What is that little piece at the end of the pipes?

I removed the rear seat brace from the frame and modified a Yamaha VStar seat to fit. Also made forward controls and pegs.

You mean the can? I built that little guy. You can check the Services Offered section of the forum to have a listen.
