Coming Along...



The Yamaha is coming along nicely. Last week I had three full days in the garage and the last two days as well. I had cut and mounted a piece of sheet metal to match the frame for th new seat pan and then kinda didn't know what to do or how to make the rest of it. Between Matt and Dad helping me out and looking around at different cafe styled bike online, I figured that something traditional would be easiest to fabricate and would probably look best. Sooooooo...

The yellow Yamaha 360 tank that some may have seen before was cu up and is now the tail piece, the seat back is bent sheet metal butt welded to the new pan. Still need to trim the top and grind the welds down, but for my first time I'm happy with it. There's still quite a bit of work to be done but I'm having fun and can't wait to get riding this bike again soon.
