Modified a Fastback seat from Leighton to fit the longer Interstate tank tank. Used a JPN front fender from Old Britts.
Painted everything in a Manx color scheme.
'Nice to see another bike with actual Interstate pipes attached. I'm probably just biased, but I like the looks of the horizontal pipes better. Some may argue that the upswept pipes give better cornering clearance, but the sidestand and/or centerstand drag on mine long before the pipes enter into the picture. Still, mschmitz57 sure has a handsome machine in silver.motoalchemist said:good to see another interback, not sure if I posted mine here in this thread, but heres a pic of my 71

Motoalchemist are they ACE bars? They seem, shallower i.e. less reach?

I feel like I've reached a milestone. Now I have to figure out how to put it together.
