Finally got rid of the damn bandana seat. Went with LePera bare bones and it is truly the most comfortable slim solo I have felt. Highly recommended if youre in the market. Rode to work today so Ill try to get some pictures in the sun to show some of the color.

Sitting out in the sun and you can get a bit of the flake and color. Im super happy with the way it turned out. I come from a background of lowriders and im so used to heavy flake and candies, I wanted something more mellow and understated and I think I hit it dead on.

Agreed! That's a cool color. Pics won't do it justice I'm sure but we can see a little of the flake. Looks cool.


Going to do something with the seat hole in fender?

As much as I would like to, I ride 2 up A LOT and it goes from solo to wife and daughter a few times a week. I am goign to look at seating options later in the year and if I find something with a different mount system, that hole will be fill when I extend the fender...

Got some time last night to put on the duals. These were an ebay purchase, I will start a seperate thread about them due to the cost (439 bucks shipped brand new)

The 21" wheel and tire are going on later this week.

A few pictures:

Tire for the 21 just showed up. Shinko SR777 90/21 I am going to run a moco 40 spoke. Love that look. Ill update the performance of the tire for anyone wondering. It was 73 bucks shipped, looks like quality rubber upon first inspection.

got the tire mounted last night and got some time to throw the 21" on up front. Current situation:




Extremely happy I went with the 40 spoke. Simplicity is something I think we overlook a lot with these bikes.

Brake rotors next. That rear is KILLING me.
