Anyone replaced their cush drive with one of these from Alloy Art? Or know of anyone? Wondering how it is if so.

Good thing to get when you go to chain drive as well as an axle lock.

I installed one when replacing my rear tire in the spring (still factory belt drive). Can't say that I really notice a difference either way. It's just $40 bucks so why not?

What are you guys running / suggest for seats? I am using a Le Pera Nomad II right now which looks pretty cool and I don't really have any comfort complaints but it is lacking in the function department. It's pretty low-profile and minimalistic with almost zero lower back support. I find myself having to scooch up closer especially when riding harder in order to get more "on-top" of my handlebars. I'd like a seat that really tucks me into the riding pocket. Lucky Daves? Saddlemen? BCM? I'm a normal size guy (5' 10" - 185lbs) and the stock seat positions me pretty well.

I'm running San Diego customs seat with back support. Best seat I have run. Been through most current seat companies and sdc works best for me in looks and function

Went and had dealer flash the BCM today. So now I removed the ignition and it turns on and off with the handle bar run/off button. Cleanes up the triple trees. One day I'll swap the top triple to a better looking triple tree.
