WOW! 
Thats one visual feast for your eyes! That’s one very special machine Roy and love that Paul Brodie helped rescue it beyond its former glory.
That saddle’s a beauty. I like it and think it works. Most would probably say swap it for a black saddle, but it’s down to personal taste/preference. I think this bike deserves a coloured saddle as this ain’t no ordinary machine! It’s an extraordinary machine!

Fantastic work Roy (and Paul). I really like the saddle and the colour doesn't look out of place. My only negative thought is that it looks a bit bulky, compared to the slender nature of the frame tubes

With a blue saddle it transports me back to this bike which is a good thing IMO!
