Abstract: The Webster scalar curvature is computed for the sphere bundle $T_1S$ of a Finsler surface $(S, F)$ subject to the Chern-Hamilton notion of adapted metrics. As an application, it is derived that in this setting $(T_1S, g_{\rm Sasaki})$ is a Sasakian manifold homothetic with a generalized Berger sphere, and that a natural Cartan structure is arising from the horizontal $1$-forms and the author associates a non-Einstein pseudo-Hermitian structure. Also, one studies when the Sasaki type metric of $T_1S$ is generally adapted to the natural co-frame provided by the Finsler structure.
