Go Faster Seat Cowl

Given the pillion pegs were missing, we decided to send the pillion seat off as well.

First to go was the leather cover and padding off of the original pillion seat plate. This was replaced with expanding builders foam and roughly cut to shape and covered in some fiberglass. Then came the hard work.

Image is a meme featuring an animated scene with four penguins standing in a row, each with distinct expressions. The penguins are anthropomorphic, with white and black feathers, orange beaks, and flippers. They are positioned against a blurred background that suggests an outdoor setting with a fence and some greenery. The text is in bold, white capital letters at the top and bottom of the image, reading 'FILL AND SAND IT, BOYS' and 'FILL AND SAND IT.' The font is sans-serif, and the text is centered, creating a humorous and motivational tone. The overall layout is typical of internet memes, with the text framing the central animated characters.

Once it was smooth enough (read, “I got bored enough”) several coats of paint from RS Bike Paints and coats of 2-part gloss coat has it looking pretty good.

Whether it makes the bike any quicker around the track is a different story…
