On to the final stage of the build. The rear cover. I had been working on a variety of options for the riser decks. after failing with a set of foam boards, I decided to go with wood.



Basically the goal here was to get the vinyl cover high enough to clear the sender, bolts and fittings on the fuel cell and roll bar. So these boards raise the cover 5/8" and provide a flat surface.

Next I made a paper pattern for the top portion of the cover and took it to a upholstery place near by. Having the cover made out of a carbon fiber textured vinyl. Which the seats have a bit of already, and should tie in nicely with the other bits. He's also sewing in a zipper for a flap in the center so I can easily access the fuel cell during refilling. Should be ready on friday or early next week.
