The seat pan is done really well, and today I ordered a set of SS brackets/hinges so the seat will be operable--most replacement Cafe seats are bolt-down fixed. I also ordered some chrome bar-end mirrors. I may not mount the rear seat this riding season, as the GF expressed an interest in riding with me this summer and the Cafe tail is a solo. I am going to sand/paint the tail, drill the fittings for the tailight, and have a foam pad/snap-down cover made by a local upholstery shop which I used to recover the morini seat. I have a getaway dinner this weekend, so I probably won't be able to make any progress untill next weekend, mounting the clubmans is the first priority--in the meantime tonight I will snap pics of the new parts and the bare bike as a "before".
