Before Greenpeace finds out that I have a whale skin seat I thought I had better do something before they attack me with one of their Zodiacs. I panicked and rattle canned it with the satin black I used for the tank. It looks OK but I rode the bike too soon and ended up with black butted jeans. I have no idea how this is going to play out since I have never heard of anyone painting a seat. This could be a major breakthrough for people with ugly seats. Cutting edge.

Here's the dilemma; my brother offered to cover my seat for me but unfortunately, unknown to me, he only had gray vinyl in his shop at the time. On one hand, I appreciate the sentiment and he did a nice job but on the other hand, I hate it. What to do...

The rear fender has been filled and painted

I removed the Rolls Royce grill and replaced it with a much lighter mesh grill

Turn signal mounted to the head light

The original wiring to the tail light and turn signals was chewed up so I had to redo part of it

New turn signals are needed since the old ones are in the fairing and bags. My brother bought these for me for Christmas so I made some aluminum brackets to mount the front ones to the head light and the rear ones to the fender mount holes

With much trial and error, everything finally fits under the fender
