nice.

nice. I think I am going to have Lepara send me a seat pan for their LN-007 Bare Bones, and I am going to massage it to fit just right and send it back for opholstry. I read they have a deal for doing that for custom seat.

nice. I think I will be going with Lepara's "one off base plate" program. Have them send me a seat pan for the LN-007 Bare bones seat, and I will massage it to fit my bike. The send it back to be skinned.

That's a cool program.

With Rich, it's better to drive in. He adjusts the seat to your body to make sure the angles of your elbows and knees are correct and will adjust the foam to relieve any hot spots. He is especially popular with the Iron Butt riders.

My last wife's legs were so long that he had to take out foam from her pillion so that he could move her seat back far enough. Her seat was also 2 inches wider than mine, because he makes it fit your ***. That didn't make her very happy ...

thanks. The skinny back wheel is growing on me. It gives the bike an older look. As for bars. I am designing a couple of different bars for the bike. Thought about using a set of 2" offset Dog Bones and a set of 12" apes, but I would have to machine the Dog Bones for running the wires through. PLus I am kind of comfortable with the situation of the stock bars. May tweak them a bit for a different look.
