Ride my 79 1000 LTD at least 4 times a week. Daughter gone to college so empty nesting allows for Saturday or Sunday all day riding. Wife goes her direction and I go mine.
Ride until I can't!

Love the seat! It's a Gunfighter & Lady...see them on eBay quite a bit. Probably the most comfortable seat I've ever had. We put on over 600 miles in 36 hours and I was confortable the whole time. That's a lot of miles for me.
The back rest pops off with one screw. I bought it mainly to ride the kids around but it really helps to hold a bag on the back too (and no, I don't mean my wife!) :laugh: :laugh: :dry:

I was looking at the corbin site today actually and boom, I see one in a post. Not a coincidence....The price is kinda steep, but for comfort...hell Id pay it. My lady would like it also.

i was just trying to make it equal on long distance folks to find the x mark.
.gas wise it should be fair to all when/if possible imo,,
before a man tells another man he might be drinking whiskey..it is considered friendly/polite to first send priority mail,pre paid, to the (wrongly) accused, a bottle of said liquid.
what are you saying mike ohio.....meet at your place once a year for the next decade or so till we all stroke out,,,
