Just look at that frame!!!
I was just looking at the picture of your bike again. That seat can be restored! Actually it is very similar to the one I just did last week. I'll attach a photo so that you can see. If you want tips on how to go about it, just ask. And it would still be the original seat that came with it. I can picture the gas tank behind the seat. And there's really nothing wrong with that rack unless you don't like it. It would give you something to affix the tank to. Nice and different chain guard. In your other night time photo I was looking at the headlight and you could fix that dent in the back of the light (nice light, actually) by filling it in with auto body epoxy, smoothing it out and then doing a little bit of paint graphics on the rear of the light, something like an iV shaped painted in the same color as the bike. Again, it would be the original light. On the other hand the one you found would look cool, too. Before removing and changing, it is good to stare at it for awhile and get used to it as it is, then build on what is already there to make it yours as you want it.
