Sorry man, That is one of the coolest little bike I seen in awhile. If it was mine I'd ask for others ideas too. Have fun, I like seeing everyones pic. One day I'll post some of my bikes.

Look, it probably does hold some value, but I'm in a place where bike values are MENTAL, and no-one ever buys anything. A bunch of poser tyre-kickers for the most part. Build it how you want, and if its not original, but you don't cut anything, it should hold most of its value. Thats just my 2 cents though...
Murray, I'd shoot for a black tuck and roll look.....something similiar to what was on it originally.......just because it echoes the same type of seats that were originally on that era of dirtbike 8)
I'm am flat out impressed with your work though......nothing you do is half-..... .....phenominal work.

thanks for the input guys I love the ideas!
how about black scalops over an orange seat fading to the back or
orange scalops on a black seat with corban material on top and black on the bottom?
I can do the orange on the bottom so it looks like the black is coming of in the wind ?!

Black...like stock!

Well you already repainted it -value, I say go custom.. Do what u want.
The more I thought of it. The more I felt it should stay as stock as possible
but I did go with the corban for the top with Tuck and Roll
I top stitched were I could and put it on....I'm happy with the choice. it will give it more of a motorcycle look
now for the tank

sorry I have not been here as much!!! My holidays are over np problem though!
after going to the swap meet / bike show. I raced home to finish the bike.
I ended up sanding down the tank and fenders then priming them then paint.
one picture in the same place it all started. My wife will try and make the tank decals some time this week
