How are the seats? My rear end likes a little more padding.


So far so good on the seats I have driven it about 40 miles straight and didn't feel too bad, I have seat covers to put on also just have not got to them yet.

I ended up building a 1915 w 110 cam, 40x35.5 heads it has plenty of power in a small buggy.
