Stock seat into a cafe seat? Can it be done?

[njcafe84]

Im wondering if anyone has just shaved down their stock seat and shaped the foam to take the "cafe" style shape? I know the stock seat pan is pretty wide but Im thinking of trying this myself. If there are any of these done out there could someone post some pics?

Thanks

I was thinking about cutting all of the bumps and valleys out and replacing it with a solid flat piece of metal and shorten the seat to fit the shorter chassis. (rear chassis mod) the stock rear valence on the 78 could easily make a cafe tail i think. opinions? Ideas?

Guilari made a bolt on cafe style seat, looked ok too.

i've cut mine done. Wouldn't say cafe style but it might give you some ideas and i'd be happy to be a sound board.

On my seat the shape was quite deceptive as the foam was quite thin in place and the shape was more to do with seat pan.

you can see some pic on my thread 'Large build'.
