The seat looks great. I also like the bracket on the back of the hoop, is that for a tail light and number plate and will there be enough clearance between the bottom of the number plate and the wheel?. I'm asking because I'm trying to work out how to attach the light / number plate to the hoop on my 550 project.

Hi Julie. Thanks for the kind words. Well spotted, that's exactly what's it's for. I've had to bend the number plate bracket slightly upwards to get clearance but haven't tried it since I got the wheels on. I'll have a look tomorrow and see if I can put it on loosely and post a pick or two.
The bracket came about from that whole episode where I had to scrap all my other ideas due to tyre clearance. It's funny how these things sometimes turn out for the better.

What type of foam did you use for the seat base mate? Need to make one up at some point and yours seems very good for a semi home job

Underdog1 the base is 3mm aluminium base plate then 2x1" upholstery foam which me and the upholstery guy fitted and shaped while I was there with the tank on the frame so we could see all the lines then when we were happy I left him to cover it.
It's the really dense foam that's made up off the off cuts then pressed an glued. Sorry don't know what it's called.
