Cool... however do you plan on something covering that gap and the lip at the rear of the tank? I keep seeing seats that end behind and below it, so if you slide forward in a hurry... ouch!1982 GS450E - The Wee Beastie

When the time comes i'll see, either the seat padding will "Fill" that gap or i'll fabricate a plate and attach it to the seat pan

A month later...
A month went by before i managed to get to the shop again.
main thing we did was to fix an ugly dent in the frame
also worked on the upper shock mount (finalizing the shape)
Drilled and welded bolts to the seat base
next time i hope to finish fabrication and take it home for dry assembly before blasting and powder coating.
in the meantime parts continue to arrive at my home from around the globe, still need to decide on things like exhaust, headlight etcLast edited by Guest; 05-30-2013, 03:14 PM.

Mate that's a top notch repair on the frame, you wouldn't even know it had been fixed! Some very tidy welding...
Good to see you back at it too.1982 GS450E - The Wee Beastie
