Great looks joker! How much did that seat set up cost? Is it the seat separate and a mounting kit? How does it feel?

Thanks!

Hey mate, just joined this group but this is where I saw your 48 before I met you on the City to Coast run a couple weeks back. I just had my 48 dyno tuned out at S&R Pro in Penrith this week. I'm a shire local so hopefully catch up with you sometime. Had to take off from the pub at Helensburgh because I thought the rain was going to hit so didn't swap contacts but hopefully you'll get this. Rock on!!! Regards Matt.

Seemed to get rid of the knock and did feel like more get up and smoother ride. Still a wee tap if I roll it on fast in first from stop but feels great all over. Good guys at S&R Pro, tuned on 95 octane. Thought I'd get higher HP but happy with 73 at the rear wheel

Nice one, a few of my mates have had there sports bikes tuned there and all say they were impressed with S&R pro.

just did the natio today, they have finally finished resurfacing it all and it's smooth as a billard board! best ride in ages

Not much to talk about. Figure machine ac and rush 1.75 tuned with pv, dakota digital speedo, badlander seat.
I like to keep it at stock look.

Thanks!
Thanks man! The Seat was $299 and the mount was $249, IMO the new seat is way more comfortable than the stock seat! I made sure to go over some pretty hefty bumps to get the full effect and was extremely impressed with it! Plus, no more sliding back on the seat during acceleration.

Bike looks great!!

I need to stop looking at this thread... LOL... but I sent HD an email to see if that seat is coming out in distressed brown... if they make it in brown, I will not be able to resist getting it. Straight bolt on to the mount I have.
Seat does look good, I'll have to see what they price it at here in oz. Love my custom HD springer in suede but the weather is hard on it. Nice bike.
