New seat options

[greenbarn]

There is a thread on here some place dealing with that, but I couldn't find it.

I used a heat gun to warm them up as much as possible, then used nylon string behind the badge. This worked to some extent, then I used a plastic "pry-bar" to CAREFULLY pry them off.  This was followed by a lot of peeling-off of the adhesive, using goo-gone and a plastic scraper.

The tape they use is good stuff.

...Now that's funny,Ratman!!!
Greenbarn your spending a lot of time in that barn,thinking some fresh air might do you some good...

Yes, if it ever gets decent out, and I get some chores done, maybe I'll get time to go riding....   That's a thought.

....great for hauling your mother-in-law about town.......

Nah, she'd be more comfortable in a side-car...  and I ain't got one!

  Hobbies...my wife said I need one since I'm retired from teaching and my real job...I don't have time for no stinkin' hobbies! Here is a pic of my stock solo seat with the mustang cover and factory skirt sewn on. The P.O. cut the bottom off the skirt for some unknown reason, so what I have is all I have. I added the fringe to help cover up where the skirt SHOULD be but isn't.

Greenbarn, I think you need to get a hobby...

Actually, this Drifter hobby is quite enough..... I had it in the shop for the next project.   Notice in the pics there are no tank emblems......

  And that would be bad how? I am a nice guy ...

Greenbarn, I think you need to get a hobby; you are starting to remind me of the Ratman.

Well, all this talk on the forum about everybody getting Singh seats, Tractor Seats,  and other stuff... Lambskin covers, Mustang seat covers etc....

Not wanting to be out-done, I decided to put on my very own, CUSTOM Tractor Seat on my 800.  I'm going for a 1-of-a-kind look, all the while making sure it's still comfortable.

Still have to fab up a couple of brackets, or something, but I need to make one major decision first:  I have to do is decide if I want to install it in the pilot position, or perhaps on the passenger spot???   Maybe I could just use a couple ratchet straps to try it out first.
