Default Looks Vs Comfort

Hello all I have to say I Love the Ride comfort of my JRI shocks But they just look so out of place on my bike compared to the Progesive 430s I had
Also Love the looks of the sidekick seat VS the Mustang Vintage Wide But my GF refuses to sit on the sidekick LOL

Default The Ol Lady

Well, I had the same problem when I removed the big ol ugly dresser seat off the FLT. Slapped on a really cool looking ol bates solo"with 2inch. springs" and on old "p" pad off my old pan, looked pretty fine to me. BUT the ol lady bitched every time we went some where. The old seat wasn't going back on but I got a really good ol lady sooooo..... I found a big *** rear seat"on sale"
a mustang regal plush or something, an that thing comes half way up into my back, Oh yea, Looks and comfort ain't always the same, but If the OL LADY ain't happy..... Well you know. and Chill dude, those shocks look fine. Killer

all i see are two pictures of a blue motorcycle...certainly not enough difference to worry about. they cost a good bit of money-just shows that you want the best for your ride.

I understand what you're saying about the shocks. I wish someone made a high quality shock that looked stockish.

The progesive 430 Looked GREAT (IMO) They were also 11" not 12 like the JRIs but man i would get bounced out of the seat all the time

I like how the shocks look. Then again, I have Ohlins on mine and they look similar- just like the high quality shocks that they are. I understand what you're saying, but after putting almost 20K on them I wouldn't give em up for some bling.
I've also had better looking seats but the Mustang is what I ride all the time now. I spend way more time on the bike than looking at it and that's what matters to me. It all comes down to one's priorities.
