Hi everyone,
Ive just put some stuff for my next build together, but I'm not too sure of how my Renthal layback n seat actually look.
It looks way too far back, so I thought I'd ask ya's if you thought I should turn the seat guts the other way around to bring it forward a bit.
Whaddaya recon?

Also here's a few pics showing very roughly what it'll be like once built. Gonna be built as a survivor, but will give it a good wipe over before it's done.

I am building it all up as I had it in 1980/81, could have gone with flights n stuff - but that's not how I had it then, so I am keeping it almost exactly as I had it back then. (Had a blue stem, but had no luck getting one so far.)

Anyway - seat is question - should I rotate the guts to make it look better?
Cheers!
