Banana seat Redesign:

OK guys, when I first mocked-up my rat rod bike I/we were drunk. Needless to say the seat is a bit to forward and my azz hurtz like a biatch. The new design will incorporate a chromed front rod bar springer/lean back design and the rear will have a split bushing+spring system. All will be exposed to admire my handy work HAHA!!! :mrgreen:

Here's the video's 1 and 2:

DISCLOSURE": i have been drinking since 2:00pm :mrgreen:
 
UPDATE with mock-up animation:
After rendering the rear design, I started making sure everything fit...IT DOESN'T!!! The back plate will have to tilt upward where it meets the frame mount but the bushing and spring will need to be level.

See the link to my animation:

Here is the correct orientation of the frame in relationship to the spring plate...thinking to myself "..who gives a sh*t!" :roll:
