Well.............. Ray. You've been a bit quiet, or did I miss it?
Did you sell your Vaquero? Did you buy an Indian?

Been getting involved over at the Indian forum.

The Vaq is still for sale...$5500.00.

And yesterday I just picked tis up....Indian Chieftain Dark Horse....540 miles as of tonite.







Between yesterday and today I've been drizzled on, pissed on, rained on and poured on, needless to say our relationship has been consummated.

And this thing is the friggin bomb!!! More will be revealed.

OMG....this skoot is da bomb!!! It handles and carves corners like a sportbike. Even with ALL the mods I had performed on my Vaq this CDH makes the Vaq feel like a pig!!!

BUT...it ABSOLUTELY SUCKS for keepin me dry when it's raining, but that's all the Vaq has over this skoot!!!

YEA...stock seat and purty nice lookin too. I believe it's the first stock seat that has by butt feelin ok. It is nice and soft and as long as the foam doesn't pack down and get softer it should e ok.

I agree on the stock seat. My Nomad seat was too soft and always push forward onto my nads. Maybe that's why they call it a Nomad.lol. My Corbin seat was like sitting on a rock.
The RM seat was o.k. at first but after broken in its much better. I do still bring my air hawk if I'm on it for more than a few hours.
