Saw some good reviews on it so thought I'd give it a try. I 'spose I'll end end with a collection of seats for different occasions. Me, I really like the stock FBL solo seat, so I'm good with that. Will it look goofy (too wide) without saddlebags? Pics would be great. Thanks. Ride safe.
Here are some pics for ya. BTW the wife loves it. If she is happy so am I. LOL

Default Exhaust Wrap
Operation Chrome To Black took me about an hour start to finish. Picked up 50' of black exhaust wrap at the speed shop today about $20 cheaper than at Autozone and good thing I got 50' because I used every inch of it.
