I have raised the hight by 25mm and therefore reducing the scollop at the back of the seat which allows me to move back by about 70mm which is so much better for me. It has taken 3 attempts till I got it just rite
I now feel I can tuck a little better the new seat cover is supper soft with great grip and I won't have to worry about strapping a bag to it and causing any bamage
on my last few bikes I have made a touring bag to suit the shape and gear I want to take its quite challenging not mention time consuming. (I would much rather buy a rear bag) it needs to carry 4 -5 days of gear(easy as I travel light ) the challenge comes when I have to pack the tent sleeping bag and mattress. I think this time I may buy a suitable bag and modify it
Wow that is a big improvement. Cannot even notice it in the pics. Good job done there.I have raised the hight by 25mm and therefore reducing the scollop at the back of the seat which allows me to move back by about 70mm which is so much better for me. It has taken 3 attempts till I got it just rite
Cool, looking forward to it.
What's the mattress for, you've been out of africa too long. Mate have you forgotten the devil thorns in Rhodesia, blo0dy 3 inches long those things, but you know you have had a good rest when you don't have to dig them out of your back in the morning.

You know what your Right thanks for reminding me! I'm not packing a mattress or a tent or sleeping bag..............im getting a hotel room >
Haha. How true. I only sleep in a tent at the bike rallies other than that it's hotels for me. Keep the energy for the road, why waste it sleeping on the ground.lol I used to be able to sleep in a tree, now after broken legs x 4 fractured hip, torn Shoulder tendon torn Triceps tendon, Torn Sacroiliac joint rite knee reconstruction a 20mm mattress is needed:grin2: oh those Devil thorns always got them in the Heel felt them for a week, I miss the Wag N Bietjie Bush lol....
