anybody need a seat???

[GARTHXS]

Hello everyone this seat comes off my 78e
with chopped fender but should fit any 78

[red bandit]

How comfortable is it? Is it blue or gray? How come the vacuum advance isn't hooked up? Is the choke lever bent or broke off? How come the rear shocks are painted black? How come you don't have side cover emblems?

[trbig]

Man! What's with all the questions?!?

But while we're at it... lol..


Why don't you have a front fender? Why aren't your handlebar ends capped off? What happened to the stock mirrors? How come you have to turn your petcocks off? How come yours doesn't have the puddle of oil under where you park it like it's supposed to?

You can tell how good a thing you have by how much others pick at it.

Hi Garth,
like it plainly sez, "under construction" right?
It'll look effin' wonderful once it's done, I'm sure. I love the seat you are offering, it looks to be a fair bit longer than the stock seat. If so, my fat arse would like it too. Alas, it seems the seat from a '78 Standard don't have the correct dents underneath to fit on my '80 Special.

[GARTHXS]

fit

It does'nt have a hollow in it for the tci but mine is just fastened to the inner fender

[planedick]

Really?

You might want to keep that exhaust until you have the new one dialed in. Sometimes it's such a PITA to get it running right and it's never gonna be as strong as stock was. More noise isn't always the most important thing, or best thing. IMHO

I need a seat, my Saint Bernard ATE MINE!!!

Yes, that's what I said. She decided in her infinite puppy-like wisdom that she should maybe eat my original 79 seat. Took 43 people and a midget to keep me off of her. As a result, I need a seat, foam and all. Had heard that maybe cutting my own out of a foam block might be an idea. Might be easier to find one in good shape and throw it on, eh?

Hi Hammer,
the dear little doggie hasn't done with you yet. Her innards are now full of foam chunks that won't "pass through" but will block her intestines so you'll have to spend a fortune at the Vet's to get her unblocked. Then she'll need extra TLC and expensive special food for the rest of her life. I now realize how fortunate I was that my own dear little Husky-Shepherd cross chose my custom built oak coffee table as a teething aid. I could have wished that she'd chosen one or several of the kindling sticks that were in a log basket right next to my good furniture but I suppose to a dog, one stick is as good as another.

Hey Hammer

Get revenge and save on vets bills.....shoot the dog
