Default 1970 Yamaha R5 Restoration-part 3

Seat repair and reupholstering . . . I think I'd rather get a napalm enema than do another one of those. If you do one yourself, throw away the little "bolt things" that hold the cool chrome strip around the base of the seat, or believe me, you're gonna wish you were dead. Go to the hardware store and purchase the correct size rivets and some push-nuts. MUCH easier!

I should have the engine totally back together in a day or so . . . more to follow.
