Will work out a prop up system. Like a hood system. Show when done.

Got the seat from the upholsterer. The sewing was fantastic. The seat works just like I thought it would. Took a ride, a world of difference. I can move about on the seat, readjusting my butt and legs. Lots of room. The top is long, wide and soft yet firm. Very much evenly distributed the weight...

You guys nailed it. On the surface would not pay more than $2,500 for it. Too bad it was messed up by someone, hope they did not get hurt real bad. Trying to get in touch with him. Maybe go look it over, take close up pictures.

44boyd that is exactly right. There is more to this story.

That is good info. Hope to hear more comments. Hope Sean and Captain Kyle pop in with something.

I use what is available on the shelf. Prestone, Super Tech. Never have a problem with heat.

He is asking $4,500 for this 2007. He wrecked it. Front end mashed in. Take a look at it. Interested in your comments. Especially those that have experience appraising such damage. What would it cost to fix, is $4,500 too much? I bet it would cost a lot more if the frame had to be replaced...

http://qualitypartsonline.com/t-boost.htm This is what I have. Do not know if it works, never hooked it up.

Have a tboost? Switch. It connects in line to vboost control. Is a 3 position switch. Never used it. Maybe some research would tell what it does.

This is remotely reasonable. See http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/mcy/3119209850.html

Cover update, July 10, 2012. I took the seat to the wrong upholsterer. Turns out his help is not qualified to do the seat and he was uncomfortable continuing. This took a week. Good news was he gave me the name of a specialist that talks like he can make it great. Took it to him today. He...

It is at the upholsterer. Pick a flat black covering. Looking forward to putting it on, taking pics, riding on it. My only thought is I should have gotten firmer foam. If that is the case, will change foam. Will be fairly easy since cover will be made.

Getting ready to ride, notice rear tire is low. Get off, check tire, find nail. Need advice on fixing. Can I fix with tire on bike? Is there a plug that is recommended? Hope I don't have to take in, have wheel, tire taken off, patched. Please advise. Thanks. R.

Not only knees but the foot/ankle joint. I relieve this by moving my foot away from the motor on the peg and angle the foot in a downward position. Not too much so that my toes would drag, about a 4:30 position. This put more natural position in the combo. Thinking being a little higher will...

Twisted, I did not. Will have to pick from upholsterer samples.

Final steps at home: Use a wood rasp and smooth out all surfaces. Cover with 1/4 inch foam. It is ready to be covered. Upholsterer will put plastic over the foam for water resistance. The lines drawn on the foam are where the seams will be. Decided on redesigned OEM looking seams. The...

I have never done a seat, never worked with foam. But still pursued my custom seat. Wanted to extend the length, take out the hump, widen the flat portion, add height. Length for room for adjustment back and forth and room to help support upper legs when shifting weight on rides off butt...

Also besides the heat is the terrible humidity which here in Norman, OK, it is unbelievably high and makes it feel much worst.

I am glad I am not the only one that has a hard time enjoying riding in the 100+ heat. I think it is an age thing. When a teenager and in my 20s never considered the heat.

How hot is it in your area? In Oklahoma today is was 106! It was like an oven outside and it really sucks! After 11:00 am it is too hot to ride. My helmet is really hot inside, the motor heat is really hot on my legs, the wind is hot, the sun is burning. At 8:00pm after the sun goes down is the...
