Coming together well Abb
Just don't put "His" and "Hers" T-shirts on when you go out together. That would be a step too far

Don't worry Pete, I won't!!
I buy daves bike whatever I tend to buy for mine as he does all the hard work so the least I can do is make sure he is nice and comfy. Forks are done now and look like black glass..Super slick and smooth and wheels are back, just a cpl of things to do then I'll post up the before and after photos

I remember buying a custom Gel seat for my old Yellow VTR and we rode down ( when we lived in Scotland) to visit daughter in Swansea = 400 miles then rode out with playerone, Pete and Nelly etc all over Hay on Wye, Hereford etc and rode home again = 1100 miles in 3.5 days and all the way home he standign on his pegs, stretching up, and then sitting down and all I could think about was how 'comfy' my butt was lol,my back was killing me but my butt was comfy! Ever since then after we both replaced both VTRs it's been on the list of things to buy for him..= job done..
But really, those seats, and both bikes look outstanding.. Well done.
Thank you, he's does all the graft so to make life easier on him ( to do all my jobs on my bike I want lol) I bought him the Hydraulic Bike lift and a 6 ton press, figured he'd like those!
Save his back, he aint getting any younger lol
