Dare I ask, any seat show up yet? I am getting nervous. I may be able to ride here next week if it were not for the fact that I would have to put a pillow on my battery........

Finally got my seat back from Seth Lamm, He Really, Really needs to work on his customer service. But the workmanship is outstanding
i rode 230 miles with it yesterday and the seat felt great it is much firmer than the stocker and wider I just need to get my backrest built now and I think I will be in good shape for the summer

Don, you going to make those intakes available? I would be interested if so. I have to agree with you on the seat, Seth he did a great job on the seat, but man does that guy need an assistant to work phones and do some PR. His communcation is HORRIBLE. But I am happy with the outcome, which means a lot. I will be logging hundreds of miles next month, that will be the real test for me. The bike looks great, I will be making a few more mods as soon as spring gets here (if ever).

That snorkel is all hand made. You could probably buy one for less than I would have to get for making another.
Yeah I really cant recommend seth laam because of his poor customer service
The first time I sent him my seat everything went perfect, the second time was a nightmare. Both times I asked him to send me some matching vinyl and both times he didn't, Always had an excuse.
His product is great however, if you do deal with him don't send him your primary seat,, Find a spare and send it. You will get a great seat,,, Eventually
