Default new seat
Anyone put a car seat on their bike? I'm going to modify my RK to a RCSK and will post up some pics if I can figure it out, cause without pics it didn't happen.

I am sorry, I have not rode in weeks, was looking over the posts in our touring section and saw posts about seats and car tires, I just went with it. I'm riding tomorrow, before I do more stupid stuff.
