I just put the new Woody's fairing on the bike. I like the fact that this bike is easy to change the appearance of. What I would like is your opinion on what you think looks best to keep it the majority of the time. Solo seat or with the rear seat, backrest and luggage rack.

Thanks

That's a damn beautiful bike, in both configurations! Either/or is good.

How are you going to use it most of the time?

I prefer the clean look of the solo but it would never work for me 98% of the time.
My wife likes to go with me

Solo but, if you ride 2 up often then I would keep it set up for that.

I ride solo about 99% of the time. My wife rides a Heritage so she never rides on back.
