    And honestly, I somehow managed to pull both off (I think)!

    The seat took a lot of effort; I enlisted my roommate to stretch the vinyl tight across the seat while I staple-gunned the hell out of it. :twisted: Still have to give the clear coat a light sand to make it less... bumpy and more amazingly shiny.

    This, in addition to pulling all the chrome and getting the rust off (holy shit the headers look like new again), and my $400 bike is quickly turning into something worth checking out. :D
