Making a King and Queen

deckard- did you have them make the pan as well?

Yea dude. I sent them a template of my sissy bar and some measurements. I also sent my old seat so they could use it for referance. It was a plastic pan. Everything on the new k/q is handmade built from scratch.

also deckard....upload a profile pick....that pink unicorn is just too much.....

I've grown fond of the little pink pony. I can't upload profile pics from my phone.

I prefer working with metal. I did layers with 18gauge.. when I built this seat pan, I was thinking of it as part of the structure of the bike. The bucket is 10 gauge.

Those look pretty damn nice. I'm going to get off my ass one day soon and build a seat for my bike. Not sure if I'll go K&Q but definitely something better than what I have.

Also for the seat foam high density and closed cell. From what I was told by a guy that does boat seats open cell will act like a sponge and absorb water.

i duct tape all my seats foam up and wrap in saran wrap so the foam cant absorb as much water..then cover in leather etc

Deckard have u put that seat on your bike yet? I want to see how that thing looks!

Here it is. Not bolted on yet cause i have to adjust a few things. Got a long way to go on the bike itself, but you get the general idea of it. The quality of the seat is amazing!

Looks Rad bro! That's a sick bike you got there. I'm going with a k & q also

Thanks man. I'm still trying to figure out my pipes, think i'm gonna go with some tall upswept fishtails. I also gotta figure out my paint. Got a few ideas but just not sure yet. I'm having a blast building it. Hope to be done by december. The motor pulls strong and we just rebuilt the trans so thats all good to go. I'm also thinking the peanut tank looks too small with the seat on now. Any suggestions?

King Sporty tank?

I also think a genuine "2 fatbobs welded together"/ alien tank would look good too,

Yea, i've been lookin for a king sporty. I had split fatbobs on it for a while just didnt like em. Maybe a long alien?
