How to Make a Café Racer Seat | Café Racer Project CM450 

Once again… you show your fine skills … making your own seat???? Genius!!!

Very cool Zach, Right on 👍

I love how you are willing to just try everything.

Wonderful. This is a "how to masterpiece". In my opinion this one should have a lot more views. From my point of view this is looks just nice. Here goes my like. Yeah, waiting for the Part 2.

Now You are one step ahead of me! I like the idea of using original mounts, but like you I too have the same problems with them even when only using the front one. 😀

I could smell that fibreglass stuff as you were brushing it on… took me back to my days in a body shop!!!

Practice makes perfect and believe me I still have loads of practicing to do!

I've never thought of making my own seat. Looking forward to seeing how it holds up long term and how much support it gives after some time!

Didn't see this coming, very interesting. 👍👍

This is so interesting! You did a great job so far Zach! I totally did not know that was the first time you made a fiberglass seat until you said so!! Really interesting to watch. When I was a kid, my dad made a fiberglass canoe... It wasn't very pretty but still very cool. 😁

That's really cool and interesting vidz my friend. Great build, keep it up and more vidz to come my friend.

Idk if it's the same for bikes, but for our couch we used super dense foam to make it last longer, and then also wrapped it in batting for the initial compression and to keep shape overall. We then vacuumed it (wrapped it in plastic first) to put inside the fabric exterior that was way smaller than the foam to make sure it didn't break down and have the fabric end up wrinkly. Maybe something like that could work?

Thanks for showing how this is done. Do you think you’ll do the same sort of process when you make the frame changes you mentioned?

Nice work, that didn't suck at all :) Definitely need to shave a little off the top though, you're right.
