Seat pan

So the seat was rotten through so it was ditched.
I got some 1mm angle steel to start making and basic seat frame.
A couple hour's later and I've got the frame sorted.

Daylight fun

Finally got the chance to work on the bike in the daylight which made a nice change.

first think was to tackle the tank mounts, a small amount of chopping and the front of the tank fits, only problem is the clearance of the coils.
I cut the old mounts off and re located the coils tighter to the frame.

She's coming along now.
I had planned on using the original seat pan with new foam and leather but as with every thing else its rotten.
I've decided to make my own seat so I'm off to get some angle iron to get cracking.

The front brake master cylinder was manky to say the least.
The fluid bowl was crumbling so I figured the hose must be shot to.
Unfortunately this meant some more expense.
The brake was pretty cheap but a good hose from hyper hose ain't cheap. Buy cheap, buy twice.
I've popped the brake on and plumed her in. Since then its rained every day I've had off so no more progress at the mo.
I did pick up a new welder and big bag of washers, gotta love eBay

Tank

Finally got hold of a tank, its also from a GSX. a lick of paint to keep the rust at bay.
I'll have to cut off and move the mounts on the frame as the tank is longer than the original.
And of course the seat will need chopping down and re foaming.

Oh dash

So I got the holes drilled(a little wonkie but not so bad) bit of sanding and quick blast with the spray paint.
Wired up the lights; a little fiddlie but all sorted and very minimalist.
