How to make a cafe racer seat

A step by step guide on how to make a cafe racer seat. In this video I go over how I tackle the task of forming sheet metal into a cafe racer seat or cafe racer hump. Learn the basics of cafe racer seat fabrication and hopefully become confident to take on the task yourself. Please like and subscribe if you thought this video was helpful. You can find me on instagram @kylevara or check out @thirteenandcompany to see some of my latest motorcycle builds!

Great skills , I've been customising my own bikes for close-to 50-yrs , not always drastic but a few Cafe's over that time . I always learn 'something' watching you and others , I'm also looking-forward to you doing a bike-geometry vid ,as-mentioned by Rory . Dave NZ

Love the vid! Do you have a pdf or dimensions for the starting shape you used? Trying to figure out dimensions for something similar on mine and cant for the life of me wrap my head around it for some reason

You're the coolest man! What would you charge to make a seat like this???

[@rorymatthews6675]

love this. Thanks for sharing! A video from you on bike geometry would be awesome. What to know/consider when altering height of the triple tree on the front forks, different rear shock height, etc.

Rory, that is a great idea! Thanks for the input. I'll work on that video over the next week or so.
