About half of the base will be cut to make it fit the frame shape (the still rusty parts). The foam will be cut down and the base sent to the saddler.
Decided on getting short racing fork handlebars. Comfort 0%, style 100%.
Updates soon.

Seat Restoration.
Bought a rusty old seat at a local BMW dealership's junkyard for a couple of bugs. Took a steel brush with a power drill adapter and sanded it down to blank metal.

Naked.
Took off the fairing of the bike, together with the seat and other stuff.
The rear frame will be shortened by 3" and welded back to place, the new seat should be on its way soon. Indicators, handle bar, mirrors, etc. are in the mail.
Next update soon.
