For me Christianity is not a religion, but a relationship with the person of Jesus Christ. I may engage in religious activities, but at my core I am seeking to know Him more and to be like Him.

It's very nice. So, what color are you painting the bike ?

It will be a variation of the following four tanks with a custom valkyrie helmet on the side of the gas tank. Deep gold with big metal flakes for the base and candy root beer mixed with bronze for the graphic work.

Yeah I was all over the board for a bit. Initially I was going to do a retro baby blue and white like a '57 chevy, but the more I rode the bike, it just didn't fit. then I was looking at keeping the black and doing some ghost flames, but that does not fit my personality well either. Ultimately I found these tanks and fell in love with the bold colors along with the intricate graphics and felt it was more in line with what I wanted.
As far as the blinker buddy is concerned it came pre-installed on the underside of my seat and all I had to do was the wiring. I will be happy to send a pic of the underside of the seat though later today when I get home.

Oss, As long as the seat cover isn't glued down (most aren't), G-man can remove the fasteners (staples or rivets, maybe prongs) and place the unit wherever it goes. Then reattach, alternating from one side to another. G-man, if you were closer, I'd be happy to work on that with you. There's always Fedex  |

I have the Kingboy seat. I'm already bottoming out the seat at times, depending on whether or not I have breakfast before we ride. I wouldn't know where to install it. I don't want to cut into the foam and weaken or lessen it's foaminess.

How old is the seat? Have you tried a gel pad? I've added a piece of 1" firm foam on top of an older foam pad and reinstalled the cover. It makes a world of difference. |

My seat came with the blinker buddy installed, here is what it looks like for reference. there is a small rectangle cut out of the seat pan, but does not look like any foam was removed:  Untitled by texdoc77, on Flickr |
