Seat Pan
| The worst area is on the side of the kick stand. Which suggests that this bike was left out in the wet on the side stand for many years | 
| Old base is not to bad. | 
| Small 1/8 th plate infill for the rot next to the lock. | 
| Mig working great. | 
| Clean inside as this will be in view | 
| Small rot around drain hole. | 
| Foam side after welding. | 
| Underside area after welding. | 
| Remove old strap nut as it was rotten. | 
| Bottom edge front rotten so cut back to good steel. | 
| Wind down the required nut. | 
| New Steel in place. | 
| Mig in place and remove bolt. | 
| Weld both sides. |
