Damn. I waited about 30 hours for the base coat on the seat to set up but I guess it wasn't quite enough. It wrinkled 15 minutes after the clear coat hit. After a bunch of wet sanding it's back to serviceable condition again. The headers got a coat of flat black high temp paint since they were starting to rust again, although the new pipes came in off ebay and are in much better shape. Also fixed a small oil leak on the tach drive. The oil seal at the end of the tach cable was nonexistent so I dug around and found an appropriately sized silicone seal. All she needs now is a new chain and I can start riding her again.
