fiberglass cafe seat questions

[byegge]

making a racer on a budget. was going to buy a fiberglass seat but wasnt quiet sure how to mount it. i dont really have access to welding equipment. was wondering what the best way to mount the seat. it would have to be removable but not in a hurry. thanks

you can buy or make a seat. i made my seat, it doesnt look pretty, but i made it cheaper than buying a premade one. just need some tape, fiberglass, resin and time. once you get it made you can bondo and prime it

You forgot foam to make the master and spray adhesive to glue the foam together.

I have fiberglass seats on both my flattrack racers from grand prix glass works. The seat bolts to the frame and I use Velcro to attach the seat pad to the base. Works on the trailer at over 70 mph with nobody on the seat. I'll send pictures later if needed. Paul

I didn't use foam to mold my seat. I just taped over the frame. then laid the fiberglass. it fits the frame tight and no need to bolt it. I have had my bike in the bed of my truck doing 65-75 and seat never move. I plan to trim my seat and add a hinge to the front so I can flip it up when I want to access the electronics. if you need foam you can get it for 5 bucks at a craft store and maybe 5 bucks for some spray adhesive.

You can fab up something with a board or some metal that utilizes the frame hinges to attach the seat to the frame.
