Default Redneck Engineering

I bought a 2007 Redneck Engineering Getting High Villian a few weeks ago. My only gripe is the hard ride over the bumps in this great state of NJ. Does anyone know of what is the best means of putting some type of suspension on the seat or a way to soften the ride just a little bit. Thanks

A couple of thoughts. Have your existing seat redone with some gell padding or replace the seat with a solo type that has a spring suspension. Back in the day, guys used to run a lower pressure in the rear tire to soften the ride a bit but with that low profile tire you are running, its not an option for you.
That is all I can think of right now.

Jessie James at West Coast Choppers makes an Air suspension for the seat on rigids, go check it out.
