I think it was one of the reasons why I didn’t feel much of a difference from a RGS on the highway. Of course, 22” windshield on my old RK offered a better protection, but while it looked ok on a regular RK I don’t like how tall windshields ruin a look of the RKS.
Tell him I'm interested if he wants to sell it!

Copy that. Thx 4 the reply...figured as mucho! I may buy one for myself. Think my g/f would find it super comfy and I do like the look. Ain't got no other sharp pointy stuff on my cycle. Enjoy your ride...she's a beauty. Remember, grass is always greener, etc. Happy New Year 2021!

Testing out the Harley Low Profile Solo Touring Seat.
So far, its awesome. Lowered me at least two inches, and really comfortable.
Im going to put some serious hours/miles on it next weekend to really test the comfort

Got the same bike & same seat along with a Road Sofa by Saddlemen. Love my Harley lo profile seat! Bought it from a dude here on the forum. He told me it's super comfy & he was right, right? It's a fantastic solo seat...I am well pleased with it! The RS goes on for rides with my g.f, who loves that as well as I also! They're BOTH great! Enjoy.
Is that a fat front tire? If so, what fender did you choose?

Ya I got the diamond stitch too, with toast colored stitching. Bought the pillion seat to match, but g/f prefers the Saddlemen. I love it too. It gives excellent back support right where you need it due to the high rise at back of driver seat! Just got the Wood 22XE cam installed, can't wait til the weather breaks so I can try it out!
