OK,
I'm getting a little miffed at the custom seat place. As some of you may know I'm switching Hazel from black to brown leather. I sold my touring seat to help pay for it and I'm having the solo, pillion and sissy pad recovered in brown leather. Now I'm seatless until the custom seat place gets to my seat. Orginally they said 2 weeks but somehow that's turned into 4 weeks . Now the nice weather is here and I have no seat at all.

Anybody got a loner they can leand me for a couple weeks?

Conversely, I have a seat but am looking for some nice weather. Want to trade?

When I was a kid my friends dad used to take his seat to try and stop him from riding so he just slapped a pillow on there and we went anyway. It won't look cool but you could ride. If you have the airbox still you will have to do something to allow it to breathe.

Bolt on an oak plank for now, won't be any harder than the seat on the soozooky training wheels bike the OL learned on.
