    Nice bike,
    I was looking at it for some time. that front rim is sweet A60. I am 6-1 and I think that is going to be way to high, I would sell that seat and get some other lower seat but thats just me. did you get the bags from him too? B

    I don't have any spoons here with me in the desert, but I'll be happy to take you up on that offer. I didn't have much trouble when I swapped out the scorpion on my old 950.

    Tell you what- lets meet somewhere between us, like Anza. We can swap seats and ride a little. If we're not both happy, we can swap back.
