[quote=roddenby51;9699514]Here is my Slim with old style sprung solo saddle and quick detach windshield.

Thanks for posting a shot with a windshield on the Slim, I'm still up in the air on one myself. I want one but do not want to mess up the lines of the bike.

Here is mine

#52000014 is the kit to install Solo Spring Saddle #54373-10, not the seat I installed. (#52004-25) I would like to have the plastic cover from kit #52000014, looks like a better fit.

Probably 2" higher than stock.
