Got a call from the seat-guy that the metal base for the new seat is ready and we could check it out. It turned out that the fabricated base was longer than the original seat and would need some cutting and shaping. The shape would be very much similar to the Goldstar seat. The seat should be completed by tomorrow but would be fitted only once all the other work is done.

Some pics to keep eveyone updated :

The fabricated base as compared to the original seat.

The base is long enough to make the Machismo a 3-seater

Taking measurements to get the base-metal into shape.

The Machismo with a proper "impractical" Cafe-Racer seat.
