I have a small leak at the right post. My radiator is pretty loose in the grommets. I'll check our local Orchards Supply and see if they have any grommets to fit.

Amen!

Yep..they custom make whatever you want. BUT you'll need to send in the passenger seat so they can shorten it too. If you can do the ride-in they can do it sameday and you're there to measure.

I took a 2" thick piece of a stiff closed cell foam about 8x6" and then cut a tapered hole in the center. It goes in my saddlebag, and I carry coffee to work everyday and it had yet to spill.
