Interesting reading - Maybe for future projects later in the year...

..and another one. Sorry abvout the size of the files but that's how they came off the camera and I dunno how to compress them or anything like that. Bloody technology eh

That looks really nice!

Did you have the seat pad made to fit? or is it an off the shelf item?

The Ricambi ss stuff looks to be better than the ssie stuff which, just doesn't seem to fit.

That will do me. What one was it, there seems to be choice on the web site.

Adk, where did you get it painted?

For the seat pads I was originally going to get some sticky foam from Ricambi but then found this fella on e-bay - item no 8044117683. The only trouble is the guy doesnt take paypal so you have to do a bank transfer which is ok if you don't have a skanking bank like mine that charges you £15.00 to do it - so In the end it worked out quite expensive but I only paid about 30 quid for the seat unit itself so I wasnt too ****ed off.
The seat was one of these - ebay item no 8044954220 which I've noticed on the Ricambi website for 10 euros less but Im sure you can pick them up cheaper if you hunt around a bit. You get a huge great mould line down the middle of seat but a bit of rubbing down soon gets rid of it.
Oh, and a fella called Densley Charles Coachwork in Cambridge painted it for me for 30 quid which I didnt think was too bad. The place looks a right dump but my local bike shop recommended him and he did a nice job of it.
