The seat isn’t finished yet. But at least it’s on the bike now.
\nIt’s rubber-mounted in 4 spots, distributing my weight, so I’m hoping the seat doesn’t vibrate to death and break itself apart. Fingers-crossed.<\/p>\n

Made some gusset brackets for the mounting hinges. Good idea adam. They look cool.<\/p>\n
