That's my plan. Electronic ignition is the first non-cosmetic mod I'm doing.

I figure most of you guys will probably hate this, but i thought I'd share anyways. You can be honest with me, i've got thick skin.

The hump for the seat is made from a mold I made of my tank, so it matches the contour perfectly, and the seam/ridge down the tank carries on down the seat hump.

I think it will look good. I suspect that the contour of the seat pad will have a lot to do with the visual effect of the whole seat.
This give me some ideas for the seat I am going to be building for my cafe project.
