Not Ranked
NickD covers alot of "bases" that are very often overlooked,especially if you're gonna spend time in the saddle.Been "playing" w/solo's here lately myself.Bought up a 16x12 LaRosa,3"coil springs,3" clothspin springs,4" spring shocks.Loved the look of the LaRosa-made a T bracket,welded some brackets on frame,ran it w/the spring shocks for a week-ass killed me after an hour-fine for a bar hopper.I ended up buying a late model police/touring solo w/o all the air shit.Modified the T bracket to swivel at the point where rear gas tank mount is (bolt straight thru backbone).Seat looked like an aircraft carrier,so trimmed about 2-3 inches off the sides,and it already has a nice kick up,and nice ass foam.Trimmed all down and used the same comfort weave covering.Running the 3" coil springs and so far so good.Read NickD's post very careful...hats off to you NickD-very well said.
