Default New Seat (pics)

Well I've been busy with a few other projects and haven't been on alot lately but thought I'd share some pics of my new seat. The posts on my old seat pan both broke but Martin at Dream Evil Designs who made my seat stood by it and made me a whole new one. I sent him some pics and let him do whatever he wanted. He is Latino so he put the saying on the seat and said I'd like it. I think it's pretty funny. I got some "F--- You" valve stem caps on ebay so he must have saw those and went with it. Anyway, I like the way the seat turned out...like an old western saddle. He'll definately be doing the seat for my CFL.

I'm not sure how the old posts broke off. The welds just snapped on the pan. I'm only 165 lbs so I'm sure my weight wasn't a factor. He buys the pans from somewhere and I'm guessing the welds were just bad on the pan. He had to redo the whole seat since the first one was wrapped in leather on both sides. The new one is felt on the bottom so it can be repaired if anything does happen. He's never had it happen before though.

The seat looks great and it really helps to set off the looks of the bike. One question, how comfortable riding is it?

Basic, that is one very nice saddle.
Not to mention the rest of your scoot.

Would you mind posting contact info for the maker??

Gotta have a leather seat, that one reminds me of some here in SATx in the 1960s.

Is this the place?

Dream Evil Designs

If so, how much did the seat set you back? I am saving up my pennies for a new one and I like their style.

Thanks
