Picture of my Vaquero today

I literally park right outside my office window, kinda nice especially when riding a bike to work. I walked into a coworkers office next to mine, and as we are talking I glance out her window, and exclaim, WOW, cool!

She is asking what as I am pulling out my phone to take a picture, and I say you have to get up and look at my bike, the sun is hitting it just right... LOL. She rolls eyes but actually does get up to look. I took the picture through a fairly dirty window, but it turned out OK.

Had to share... the sun was hitting the fins so well it looked like they were individually lit up

It looks great, even through a dirty window.

Thumbs Up

GREAT PIC....cool how there's so much reflections off many different surfaces!!

May I ask what seat do you have on the bike. Now that I am doing more dating on the bike(with a girlie on the back of course), I have had some issues with passenger comfort. Am thinking about a seat with good passenger accomodations, but also with a better seat for me.
I had my stock seat redone last year as in completely stock form it sucked, it is now fairly comfy, but I wanna make the girlies happy. The passenger section is more for style than comfort.

THANX

Mustang one pc wide vintage, with a backrest that fits either rider.

I bought it for my comfort, my wife wont ride... but that back seat looks really comfy, especially compared to the stocker
