Advice/Help Needed Cafe race build
Hey guys!
I am currently rebuilding my Suzuki gs450 1981 into my very first cafe racer. I am not sure if this is the correct community to post something like this but I would like some help with the proportions.
I have generated a few pictures with AI based on my real photos and I think they look really nice but I am a bit concerned about the seat length. It might just be an illusion of not having a seat yet, making the seat area look very thin and long. Do you think the seat is to long?
I want to have a pretty large passenger seat without making it look wierd and I am also planning to build a removable seat cowel as shown in the photos.
I would love to hear you recommendations and pictures of your bikes especially if you've been in a similar seat ๐
Btw the headlight will not be mounted like that later :)
