What did you do to Your Softail Today?
Devin, the "D" in DK had knee surgery last Thursday.
Today, Mary and I decided to take a putt out to his home in the country and see how he was doing.
First day this fall that it was cool enough for leather.
Perfect 110 mile Sunday afternoon ride.
He's doing fine...percoset is a good thing after the docs have been cutting.
He showed me a mocked up floorboard he had plastic printed yesterday.

That looks Awesome Pachuco! How do you like the riding position? Seems it raises you up quite a bit, which is my hesitation.
Rode mine to an MC annual blowout. Realized nearly everyone rides a mammoth bagger. Whatever happened to knees in the breeze? Wind in your face? Bugs in your teeth? I love that part.

I went with the HD seat and mount because it looked like it was lower than most of the other mounting kits out there. There are two options for position and I used the back position. The other position puts you closer to the tank. I can ride all day in this seat...I love it.

I have a 32" inseam and I still sit flat footed with bend at the knee. It really opened up the cockpit for me and feels a lot better on my hips and knees. It feels like it moved me back 2-3" and up 1-2".

I did this last week and then the next day it got covered in bugs, at least the bugs will clean off easier now with the fresh wax.
