the 4th bike from the left in this heartland link has the heartland 1up seat w-back rest/sissy bar- they also have the other combination seat but no picture- ride/rack/rest I think they call it,($750)- 900 for the 1 up in the picture-
Thanks for the link. They look nice, but if that was the look I was after I would have bought a softail or deuce and raked it and put a 240 kit on it. And probably saved some money.

hey steve- that 1-up seat as well as the other new one click on and off in about 2 seconds to that rail, i saw it on a utube link someone had posted up here, pretty slick set-up. guess they make a special bag for the setup too- (another $$$$$)

I realize that, you would have to spend 2 grand for the heartland fender kit for it to work. + a paint job. I like the swingarm mounted fender with the gap between the seat and fender, thats why I bought a rocker. So I'll repeat it one more time. If that was the look I was going for (heartland) I would have just bought a softail or deuce, and raked it and put a 240 kit under it. And saved a ton of money! Understand? Them bikes on your link, are not factory Rockers. You know? they have common struts and fender, like any other softail. The rear end no longer rocks on the heartlands. You know? The fenders no longer move up and down with the wheel.

have the same one does good for carrying a load also
Tom, I love your bike, and I think the heartland kits look great, I'm in no way knockin them. Its just not what I'm after. Its always something I could do down the road if the notion strikes.
daBreeze, although I'm fully aware of what heartland and many other after market company's have to offer and how they work ( goes along with being all about this bike, and being a consumed gadget man). I do appreciate your info and input, and I'm sure your link and info can be great help to others. I'm sorry you assumed I was out for an alternative seat, but I'm not. They'll either make more pull pin options or they wont.
