I love the do it your self attitude and inventiveness. I can see we all just try to find a way to make it work well and look good. Heading to the garage now. Appreciate your content.

Thanks a Ton for sharing this! Made re-making the seat pan for my old Dunstall Cafe kit a LOT easier. I originally had cut down an S3 Kawi seat pan, but Father Time had caused that to become a fragile,broken mess! Some Duct tape allowed me to piece it back together well enough to use it as a pattern for the new one!

Perfect instructions. My son is rebuilding my CD200 Benly into rat look/ cafe racer fashion for a project as part of his Duke of Edinburgh Award and the seat is one part I have been stumped on. Thankfully I am competent in working with fibreglass, would never have thought of this idea. Now have a plan! Thanks for the video.

The pop rivets are genius. I was stumped till I came across your video. Thank you.

Love this Cafe Racer content! Helped me understand how to do a seat!

I would LOVE to see how your friend's seat came out of the mould as I am looking to make a seat of virtually the same style for my KZ750 bike! Thanks for the video! Andrew, from Far North Queensland, Australia.

It was super fun to work with. Smelly and itchy, but fun to work with. You ever try doing leatherwork on a motorcycle seat?

Thanks, Nigel!

Looks good! Done something similar but am thinking about using rivit nuts in the fibreglass to fasten it to my sub frame by screwing in from the bottom instead. You think that would work?

Not a lot. Total Boat sells a quart starter kit of their high performance that should be enough. www.totalboat.com/products/clear-high-performance-21-epoxy-kits?sca_ref=3318898.hpuWQfldEW

Table top epoxy is for doing a flood level coat and is super thin and runny. Awesome for a bar top not ideal for this kind of work lol
