Hi all,
1st post from a newbie here but I'm gonna jump right in.Completely stoked having just bought an '05 Rocket that has 2,434 miles!!!
I can't believe anyone would let this machine sit like this but I'm getting ready to put some miles on this "new" bike. I ride 2 up better than 90% of the time. I'm looking at taking this bike right to the dealer and getting leather bags, oil change, new tune, etc. Wife sits on similar bike in the showroom and says her legs hit the leather bags when she sits on the bike. I've been reading many posts and haven't seen quite this problem. Wife's not a big girl but stock seat is a little narrow. Seems she needs 1" higher (came to this conclusion by having her sit on a small phone book). Worried about getting something too wide because then bags won't open. Short of duct taping the 1" phone book to the seat (yeah I saw that one coming) Is my only option sending seat away and getting it redone? Saw this ButtyBuddy thing but looks like it would look worse than taping the phonebook to the seat. Any help? :?
Thanks,
Sam
