Nice work. Can't wait to see it on it's wheels to see how the seat balances out the bike.
By the looks of it, your partner can't wait either!! Got to love the reflections in the tank chrome and gloss black side cover.

this bike didn’t come original with a solo seat but I used one that was an original OEM from a ca77 dream, bolted on using existing holes in frame and gas tank mount, I had it recovered very close to stock looking,

That is looking absolutely fantastic!

I gotta ask... how much $$ in re-chroming is that?
