    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

82 1100E Seat Mod and Paint Thoughts

  • Thread starter Thread starter Mark M

At last, something gets finished! I had to wrap up the seat covering a couple of weeks ago to let a friend ride the bike. It turned out pretty good in the end. I ended up using normal silicon from a tube to build up the edges where I cut the lip away in my reshaping. Then I used an angle grinder with a sanding disk to reshape the built up areas to sort of match the factory lip.

The end result is better for me, but still not right. The basic seat pan is just too wide down at the end of the flat section and that is what I really need to modify. I am not going there, though, that is major surgery and more than I am interested in.
