Dyna Jim,

I just purchased the RSD 240 kit for my Night Train. I am in the process of making the changes right now. Here is a picture of a bike with the same kit.

what about the seat? do you have to use the springer seat conversion they offer, or can you use another type of seat?

I am actually using a low profile seat made by Bitchin Seats. They work hand in hand with RSD and from my conversation with a few builders they have different molds available for majority of the bikes out in the market. Here is their website: http://www.bitchinseats.com/

do you have pics? also, what does this setup run? i know the Heartland kit is about $2000, but you get the fender, struts, rock guard, and danny gray seat.

thanks

if you get the gas tank kit and you bike is fuely then it gets pricey....
