When I did if I used aluminium angle cut to shape and epoxied in place. Works great and doesn't take long.
Posplayr did a good write-up on it here somewhere

Stunningly beautiful bike. Looks awesome Joe. The quality really shows though, both with the paint, and your tasteful mods.

Yes, that is a Sargent seat cover I installed myself along with some of their Super Cell Atomic foam to firm up the seat.
The Supertrapp Superlight Stainless systems are no longer made and are very rare. I was lucky enough to find a new in the box system a couple years ago. Check out this thread for some more info.
Thanks,
