Clois, on the air to the carb thing. Why not make like a turkey pan for both carbs that seals to the hood? It wouldn't have to fit under the carbs although that does help keep them cooler. Taller filter elements if you can fit/find them and maybe those k&n air cleaner lids that have the filter built in. You can always put the chrome tops back on for times when you want the looks. The pan that meets up to the hood sitting between the air cleaners and the top of the carb could quickly and easily be removed.

Cobra makes a seat called the 'Classic' that has a removable head rest and raps around a bit more. Tubular steel construction. While they don't look juts like original buckets they are not as big of a departure as others. Any one tried or seen them in person?

Just a thought
