            I am on their site as well, its lais out the same as XS11.com.....I wont be selling my bike at all, its just rough on long rides as this year I had my prostate removed full of cancer it was...

            I have several interested in that seat....like I say I'm a busy Guy....just got back from the Hospital with my 95 year old Mom who had a fall 5 hours ago which leads to more appointments...here is my email millerbruce2007@yahoo.ca when I do take a few pics of the seat I will send to your email address....several interested in it so I may have to do a draw or something....sucks to do it that way....this is a clean seat and no rust on the pan.

              Bruce...I've owned 2 ST1100s and ridden the ST1300 a bunch of times...I certainly wish I had one now...with a good 800 miler to get to Lake George...I'm not really wanting to ride the XS that far...its just not comfortable enough for this old bag o' bones... I'm looking to trailer it if possible... About the seat...well whomever it is in the lineup...if i dont get it then nothing gained but no loss either...sorry to hear abt your mom hope you all can manage a Merry christmas and Happy New year...hope to see you at XSEast... Also hope you are on the road to recovery from the surgery and that they were successful at getting the cancer out...cancer sucks...Take care...

                You guys are going to have to stay at the motel up the road, with the BIG turn-around area.... Take Dean with you, get a bulk rate....

                Hunting season is over for me, Christmas shopping almost done, then back to route planning, right, Dena??!!??

                    Hi Marty
                    Good to hear the Hunter is home form the hill
                    SO WHEN can we start booking rooms ?
                    In the past we have still been haggling over the destination at this time of year

                          Best route

                          Yes, I have been on some of those roads. Beautiful, a good ride in that National Forrest.
                          The late Mike Cumming led a group of bikes in that area., We stopped at Stars Lake on 30 for Fuel, water etc. Area was sparsely populated with limited services
                          Traffic - Light.
                          Roads - Good, modern engineering, smooth pavement well maintained. (My Ride Atlas of North America 2nd edition shows about 25 km of unpaved road over Stillwater Mountain, near Big Moose). have not been there
                          Scenery - Beautiful.

                          Border crossing - I took advice of my wise friends of the Great White North and crossed at Kingston, using the ferrys. Fun, cheap enough, crossing was easy, customs quick & friendly. Would do it again.

                          Maxim Phil knows the "BEST ROUTE" to XSeast. I rode there with him once, meeting near Cherokee, NC. The Blue ridge Parkway is good, More smiles per mile, rather than miles per minute. Enjoy the trip. You have some really good traveling companions in the Great White North.
                          It is a great big beautiful world out there
