Thanks, glad you like it. My local scooter dealer in Houston, Scootersmith, recommended both the seat guy (David Groomer) and the painter (www.macpinstriping.com). Thanks Stephen if you read this. I had a good idea what I wanted to do on the seat, but the paint job was another story. I went into the paint shop with a retro cream color paint scheme and he immediately said - we need to do purple flames with a green outline - trust me. I asked him if he could a do a mock up and he said it would be easier if you just let me do it, so I put my trust in the hands of the expert. It's all had painted and came out great. The wife was thrilled. Hopefully we'll be taking it to Amerivespa 2011.

very nice! Is that ostrich skin on the seat? It looks like a pair of my dad's ostrich skin boots from the picture.
