Maxi-wings is funny. I was thinking Basset ears.

I think that's one of the mods planned. The wings hide the mounting bolts (with a Corbin seat you lose the hinge). But all initial reviews from friends said the same thing you did - the wings aren't too attractive. Last I spoke to him he was planning to get the blue piping extended along the wings and/or add some braiding or something to the wings to dress them up.

We'll see.

I should have mine done in 2 or 3 weeks. Waiting for a side mount plate, already discussed what I want with the finisher. I will post pics as soon as done.

That seat does not do it for me. I still like Heartland USA's or RSD's seats better. The 50 cal casing in the fender holes is pretty cool!

Edit: Check www.rolandsands.com look in their online catalog for American V-twins, page 20.

I agree.
The seat looks like a cheap poorly fit seat cover.
Why not just make a seat.
Also would this design allow you to use the riders essentils kit rear seat?
Where did he get the chome pieces attached to the rear frame vertical supports?
