Default seat reshape and recover

Here ya go, I got bored and was wanting a new seat but no money figure that. Yeah I found a web site that shows you everything you need to do. http://www.diymotorcycleseat.com Here's pics of what I came up with. The color I know doesn't go with the bike right now. The Bike is going Bahama blue with green variegated leaf flames. I think it will match that a little better if not there's always die. OK back to the project I used my stock seat, a electric turkey knife, and a lazyboy recliner that the seat was destroyed (found on the side of the road during bulk pick up). I used the the back of the recliner it was still good.
