thanks mate.
Just got back from dropping it off for the custom work.
Getting a charcoal 'leather look' vinyl for the main area of the seat.
And a darker black Ostrich leather for the bum pad area.
Will have some grey or red stitching and piping(will decide exactly, when I go back friday to test the foam fabrication)
this will be my seat for the next week

3 Stooges Cruise last weekend.
Heifer ck rd stop at Thiess Memorial Park
Free camping here, with toilets and pets allowed
waiting for the lights at the roadworks on the Gatton - Esk rd, thought the light would be cool for a pic
They were letting Wivenhoe drain and it was a bit of a tourist stop. was awesome. shoulda brought soap
Guy in the Harley jacket is my first instructor from 1989 ish, became lifelong friends since
Guy with Dreads is one of the coolest cats on the planet, is a project manager from Hutchies Builders
We did 390 ks approx, 1st hr in pouring rain, Tbar, Heifer ck, Gatton, Esk to the dams, then Glorious for a cuppa.
Awesome time.
Next trip will be to the Gold coast via the hinterlands and a bit of trek that way, maybe Hinze dam, Numminbah Prison area
any of you cats are welcome to rock along.

Thanks mate
A little funny story
Pulled into supercheap for some Locktite the other day and bump into the Harley parts guy, Aiden.
We catch up, short chat and at the end he says something like "Oh, and wash your bloody bike" with a smirk.
I reply that this is my daily and gotta ride it ErrDay.
Not sure he understands that my only day off is generally Sunday. She gets all my love then, though....lol
Leads into this pic
Shoulda bought a boat perhaps
Instead of a Harley
Sht Tbar Weather

and nice pic mate..!

i feel you mate.
Joined a local facebook group called 'Darling Downs Riders'.
Went for one ride with them.
A few were nice don't get me wrong, but the majority were the type who sat up people's asses, gesturing at the vehicles in front to mvoe over and if they didn't give them the finger, overtaking dangerously, speeding, etc.
Let the group race ahead, I maintained my cruise speed. When i got home, I wrote a nasty post bagging the riders responsible, left the page and blocked as many members as I could after they private messaged or posted me, saying sht like "YOU ME CARPARK NOW..!!!"
I generally ride solo or ride to brissie or coast and meet a real mate and ride for the day, then back home
-
fingers crossed, mate
-
Bloody awesome mate..!
bet you've been 'itching' for a ride on the roads with her
-
The Screamin' Eagle NightStick finally arrived.
Fitted it at work, and rode it home, loved it..!
Will upload a better pic and vid when i can.
Interesting discussion with the Harley sales rep who sold me the bike.
He said that since they arrived late Feb, til now(under 2 months), The Harley Street is now the Best selling LAMS cruiser in Australia
Surpassing the well established Yamaha 650 off it's perch
Insane, if true
-
that's awesome mate..!
Mine is also a daily.
You find yourself taking the long way home from work
:-)

Read the whole threead just now, catching up, mate.
Sucks so bad.... could feel the pain and frustration in the posts.
Glad it's sorted now

small update.
Exhaust still not here. hopefully late this coming week, they say..
Reduced cable angle on bars from 120, down to under 80 degrees, with a new mount, for neater fitment behind cowl.
Also fitted a shorty lever because 'RaceCar'..! (Oh wait..)
prior to fitment
Notice how the cable's angle away from the bar, pushes against the cowl
a lot tighter angle, better fit behind the cowl, no longer pressing against it
shot of the whole bars and setup
-
these are simply awesome bikes, mate..!
nice score
-
ah dammn mate....
a cheaper, tho sightly longer to arrive option, something from online?
-
finished the running in of the engine, so took her for a good 300 ish km ride today. Toowoomba-Heifer ck road-Gatton-Esk-Somerset Dam-Esk for a bourbon and see Faulkner's 2 wickets in the world cup final-Esk/Hampton Rd-Crow's Nest-Toowoomba
Stopped at The Spit for an icecream and a couple pics
Soo bloody happy with it..!
Exhaust should be here this week too

New bars look perfect. Looking more like my mates street bob now. ��
i like that seat Stu, but i bought one for my monkeybike once and it just never sat right, admittedly, from a different supplier.
but i will take my existing seat to Evan's Trim Shop in town here and get it custom moulded to suit and look a lil like WildThang's Roland Sands Design seat
I do like the high rise back support on it.
I'll get mine shaped similar, but then get different coloured piping and stictching
"oops I Did It Agaaaaiiinnn..!"

Taking shape.
needs more trimming
