That is very bright!  How does it handle with that big tire on the back? Is that stock or an aftermarket fat tire conversion? I'm not very familiar with that model. |

Now THAT's a pretty bike.  I looked hard at those when I bought my Valk. But the passenger accomodations just weren't up to par. |

It was done by a guy named Ricardo Gomez, in Riverside CA. He can be reached through email ( Baldylatino@gmail.com), and tell him Hink sent you. Memory foam, and color matched, textured leather. Total cost for both seats and passenger backrest... $200 shipped. 100 times more comfortable than my Corbins were. In fact, I sold the Corbins and in my opinion, I would only go with memory foam, and this guy, in the future. |

I like that orange color.
The color is "Vitamin C orange". It is from late 60's early 70's Mopars. I am a Mopar fanatic. The paint is still only available through the dealer... Hahaha. Oh, and it $300 a pint!  |

That is cheap for a custom seat. The Alligator Bob seats that I had asked you about would have cost you easily $1200 to $1500 bucks for the same job. I had a friend that he and his wife had bought new Victory's for each of them and for a Christmas present to themselves, treated each other to new Alligator Bob seats and they spen $3000 for 2 seats. If you ask me, that is just plain stupidity to spend that much on 2 seats. They were nice seats but, not worth the money. I only asked because it looked similar to his work. So, I would say you got a great deal on a custom seat. Did you just send the guy your stock seat to have him modify and recover it with the leather? |

I think we need to request a new emoticon be produced of a smiley face enjoying a creamsicle in honor of your bike. It would be famous.
