@Louis-James Great job dude, how long did it take you to recover that seat???

[Louis-DT-WR]

@NINJA to refit the new cover took about 45mins in total, however removing the original cover and it's rusty pins takes all the time

[declan]

@Louis-James yeah the rusty staples are the worst

[Louis-DT-WR]

@declan rather watch paint dry

[Louis-DT-WR]

@NINJA I'll have a look, I'm using the mobile app and find it Very hard to get to some threads ... so I miss all the good stuff

@Louis-James dope!

[Louis-DT-WR]

@declan cheers man, I'll get some pictures outside soon and with my other DT

[declan]

@Louis-James almost too good to ride

[NINJA]

@Louis-James I still can't believe how good those wheels scrubbed up or have you resprayed them when you rebuilt them???

[Louis-DT-WR]

@NINJA the wheels that came installed scrubbed up amazingly.

The bike came with a spare set and I had a set laced after I powdercoated the hubs and rims with stainless spokes

Still a great looking bike, kind of prefer it without the luggage wrack and headlamp grill but still looks fantastic. Great job.

I would have to agree, but hey each to their own and she stills looks mint!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

[Louis-DT-WR]

@NINJA I know what you mean.... Especially if you prefer the MX look... but it's basically to match with my other DT.
Such quick and easy parts to remove if I wanted to and refit whenever.

[NINJA]

@Louis-James True but for a show/collectors bike it's not a problem really.

[Louis-DT-WR]

So I had to keep playing out of OCD and curiosity
Minor details but here they are.

Adjusted the rack lower so it looks not so ott
