I know they say you "can" but has anybody verified this? My chick now is about 115 lbs. Does Rocket Bob state any kind of weight limit? I haven't been able to find an official limit or guarantee against failure. Its a badass looking fender but I'm not willing to give up the 2 up option. I'm still digging my WG fender swap but the Voodooo keeps calling to me. lol

Yes - I actually finished this winter, lost my job, got depressed, found another job (2.5 months later!) and now I'm finally riding and smiling...
Some more pics - I settled on the Mustang Wide Tripper seat and I can tell you that after riding HOURS AND HOURS on it, I'm so darn glad I did!
But I have an itch to build another bike. So I think I'm going to sell this one. I absolutely love riding it - I just had so much fun building it that I want to do another one.
Here's how I solved the gap under the seat in the rear. I used a nylon bushing and extended screw. I used a rubber washer between the fender and nylon bushing to prevent scratching the paint and also let me have some play to tighten it. It's very secure.
The whole photo journey start to finish is here.
