What else would a good husband do to keep his wife happy? I picked up my wife from work and took her to lunch on our Harley. Happy wife, happy long riding life.

What is the make of that seat? Some of the manufacturers use a "style" that applies to all sorts of configurations. I wish they wouldn't do that.

Ordered the Arlen Ness big sucker to finish the stage 1 (already have pipes & FP3) then took a long ride around some curvy roads and lakes.

Took off the 4.5 gal tank and went back to the stock. I just like the looks better.

Congrats! I know the feeling, I had paid the VLX off just a few months before I bought the Sportster. My 'good feeling' was short lived...

Scored a seat off of a 1200 Iron today, should be here next week. Seller claims he rode the bike home from the dealer and took the stock seat off and replaced it with a different one, so it's supposed to be basically brand new.

Harley Davidson's are truly money pits...
