i would like to see some of your custom seats.
got some time on my hands this winter and would like to make one.

Though not a "custom" seat, the Corbin Gunfighter looks right at home on a cafe bike.

pick up an ugly but comfortable Triumph K&Q,carve it up a bit , make a simple cowl,and...

or just a light re-shaping..

or just bend up some steel and make what you like..

The black cowl with brown seat is beautiful! Only thing is price, more than $500 US dollars

My '68 Wards,
A bit of foam, 5 ply and some glue

Airtech cafe seat and Tail

A friend of mine reshaped a stock Bonneville seat for his Thrux

this is mine on my '71 Bonnie.

started as a 'cafe' seat bought from Vietnam on ebay.

I reshaped the foam to get it closer to what I wanted.

Still not 100% happy with it but getting there. I intend doing a little more shaving here and there to make it exactly right for my eye. Still a little 'fat' at the back:

I got a screaming deal on a Triumph solo seat from Hermy's back in '05. The seat level is a tad lower and the foam is much better than used on the oem seat.
