as far as the seat goes the rider is a 300 pounder and he use the original shock spring so he would have enough spring under him, and yes that is a tractor seat.

Gives the term "8N" Springer a whole new meaning. That is a cool looking (I guess it could be considered a Bobber) that came within budget. You might want to consider painting the wheels red, adding a joker, deck of cards, or dice to the tank, and putting on a hand shifter.

Awesome Budget Bobber! I like the seat and his choice of color and the fenders with the exposed battery and the chain drive! Well executed for sure! It may not be a Harley but it sure is neat project.

That is a cool looking home job. I like the drag bars and the flat olive paint.

I need that seat for my old Ford 9N. You think your buddy would trade it for one of those nice cushion seats from Tractor Supply? I need to keep my Ford all original... LOL. Seriously, I like it even if it is not a V-Twin- I love creativity.
