    Terry, Thanks for your interest in the Solo Seat, In this case, it's the Classic Solo - allows for a backrest and is also compatible with stock passenger pillon. (Carbon Fiber leather matches stock pillon) Availability depends on Buyer of my bike having first option. Not the fastgun

    Annoyed with this Corbin dual tour

    Jag, Once in awhile I've seen them on the classifieds here, both dual & solo. I was tempted on a brown one Mexican had listed but continued to wait for a black and finally bit the bullet. When a good deal is offered it goes quick, nice you got a deal on one. Back to your avatar - it brought...

    Annoyed with this Corbin dual tour

    Jag, great avatar, My good sense and wallet agree with you, my arse on the other hand thanks me used or new. The used market is where I turn to in most cases. I have benefited in both buying & selling of used items. Good point on the Russell/daylong & custom builds using original seat pan. For...

    Annoyed with this Corbin dual tour

    I'll 2nd that, why reinvent the wheel. Warp9.9 you're input/feedback helps more of us than you'll ever know.

    As the options are limited - I decided on a Corbin Solo for the R3R (my first Corbin) Quality of the materials are good, Quality of the craftsmanship is luck of the draw, I'd say mine was 95% to my expectation. Minus 5% due to backrest alignment & seat fitment requiring minor tweaking. Not...

    Dealers Disappearing....

    The nearest Triumph dealer to me is 45 minutes and a bit of traffic. It's a Harley dealer who also sell's Triumph, in this case all the emphasis is on Harley, Triumph is in the back corner and treated like an unwanted child. They'll sell ya one, but forget about customer service or servicing...

    Replacing grips, a little too late to ask for a how to?

    Replacing OEM Grips with Iso or others is an option I have used successfully on other bikes, along with the use of the Kuryakyn throttle lock. Another option to OEM grip replacement and or comfort is "Grab on" or "Grip puppies" grip covers. In the case of my Rocket, I didn't need new grips, but...

    Want to Buy Mirrors 2015 Roadster, possible floor board trade.

    Ishrub, Thanks for the feedback on the floor boards, I'm secure with trying either the Kuryakyn 4357 boards that have the fold-up feature built in or the 7579 mini boards combined with 8905 spline adaptor which are designed to fold-up. Understanding the fold-up feature is an absolute necessity...

    Those will have a good look on the rocket, and appear to provide a sturdy perch for the foot. I maintained the stock peg position and went with the Rivco highway mounts/pegs for optional foot forward position / I really like. As far as the pegs, I'm going to try the 4357 boards and splined...

    1olbull, if we have crossed paths, and you owe me money, or have half the winnings of a lotto ticket we purchased together, then yes - I lived in Bend, OR and rode a V2K....... On the other hand, if I owe you money, or am on your black list, then no - Ive never been in Bend in my life and don't...
