That's a beautiful square buddy....

[@CafeRacerGarage]

I haven’t seen it for a while, I need to find where it’s hiding

[@MillfieldWheels]

Thinking about the tab you are going to use to hold the seat under the tank fixing. Think the seat fabric will wear very quickly if it's tucked under there.

[@CafeRacerGarage]

You may be right, Always a plan B and the awesome Ideas and comments I get really help, What are your thoughts as a replacement idea? if you have one.

[@JustTex]

Tail light looks sweet , well done sir. Cheers

[@dmasterson12]

Seat pans for days, looks good man. I've always wondered how to upholster a metal pan.

[@sparklygames71]

Probably they use rivets to do it, but I'm not postitive

[@CafeRacerGarage]

Contact adhesive is what they use for that amzn.to/2GaSehq

[@CafeRacerGarage]

Love that square, Dan! So I mistakenly called Tom “Dan” this week. He let me know in a nice way how confused this old guy (me) is! lol. Seat looking good! Video production is really awesome! 🏍👍🏍

[@CafeRacerGarage]

It happens to all of us regardless of age, You should see my raw videos before I edit them, the parts of me talking are sometimes so messed up with saying things the wrong way I'm amazed I can make a sentence sometimes LOL, we are human and calling someone the wrong name is just life, Just don't call me Tom haha just kidding. 🤣😂😂

I will keep that in mind, Thank you for your the tip brother.

[@tupaclopez5588]

Hey I really love this design but I can't seem to find a light like this, do you know where I can find one? I didn't see it on your website. Thanks

[@pradeepgehlot7039]

back side look osmm

[@mothershipmotorsports9802]

Just curious...Where did you get the Taillights you are using ? I have a small shop and channel Mothership Motorsports and your videos, along with a few others, have really helped me and keep me motivated. I am binge watching all your vids and learning so much. Thanks for the time you take for all us rookies out here.

[@davidsprague8503]

Hey Dan loving the series !! Quick one what vinyl are you using for the seats ? I’m thinking of using a tan leather but then have the issue of staining and not being able to ride if it’s wet ! Cheers

[@jacosaw]

Hi, where did you get that tail light?

[@ChaoticDetour]

If you can get it 3M has some good spray on contact adhesives

[@CafeRacerGarage]

I believe you are right, 3M is always top quality stuff :)

[@victorbh94]

Hey really nice project! I was just thinking about your Silicone problem. The reason you have a problem with getting it to dry, at the first stage of the video. Is that the silicone needs air to able to evaporating and dry. And that is not possible when it is under the plastic film. 😁

[@CafeRacerGarage]

I think you are right and a few days after shooting this video I looked at the tube said use by 2016 LOL

Greetings and thank you my English brother

[@robertgrant008]

No Thankyou your ideas are good Iam not using all but I am using some because I still want mine to be unique.

[@daryushdehnavi]

my only gripe is the size of the light, would've gone for a longer led strip, i dig the tron like look

[@CafeRacerGarage]

We are all different and we all like different styles, that's what makes so many awesome looking bikes out there, there is no right or wrong, just different taste I think :)

[@davidkozub2852]

Im looking for a very similar taillight design for my build. Would you please point me in the right direction on where you found this one? Would love the help. Thanks

[@CafeRacerGarage]

I’m in the process of putting together a website for quality parts like this taillight and other various bike building parts that are hard to find. Stay tuned because the website is not far away from going live and I will be adding new products to it all the time

[@53jed]

Different substances. Your Kwik Grip in a can is your original contact adhesive. The spray on stuff is just pressurised spit.

[@53jed]

Not even good for sniffing. Doesn’t deserve the name.

Where i can get this tail light?

[@Psycrow11]

I don't know man if that fiberglass has any Flex that bog or what we call Bondo here in North America is going to crack again.

[@CafeRacerGarage]

It is so solid and the only reason it cracked was when I was extremely rough with it in trying to get it out if the mould. If it brakes it needed fixing anyway lol :) thank you for the thought and idea brother :)

[@gpsboladao8874]

where's the finished project?

[@johnDukemaster]

Your filming skills are at a high level. TV could learn alot from you! :-) Now that you're at it, maybe a small light inside the glovebox? That would be something of a showoff! (could be lit with the rear light, no switch/contact needed, nobody knows) ;-) That "finding the middle" is really helpful in all kinds of challenges when no ruler is at hand. A piece of wood from both walls and you know where to put the door. :-)

[@CafeRacerGarage]

Thank you brother, i enjoy the challenge to try new things when I'm filming, I fail alot but I still give it a crack :) Your light Idea is a very good Idea and I think I will do that :)

[@CafeRacerGarage]

the bright side That is a fantastic and very unique idea. It will definitely be possible. I’d recommend using a marine rope so that it’s more durable to withstand different conditions. I’m not sure how you plan to do it but If you would like a little help with the process I’m happy to chat with you more if you want to send me an Instagram PM message with a photo of the seat you want to wrap
