whilst we wait for the great 'un-boxxing of the seat cowl.

I'm sure Big T wouldn't mind in we had Jukie post a picture of herself in leathers

[threadjack over]

please return to the waiting of the great box....

and remember Trev - if it comes with a Leffe Brune beer then it's for me, cool  waytogo

Okay I have had my way with the virgins so time to post the much awaited pics (apologies for the "garage" shots).

Something to wet the appetite....



The rest of the pics are here:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/26503291@N03/sets/72157605785329632/

Okay a few things I have notice just playing in the garage.

~ It is 5.2kgs compared to 3.6kgs for the stock seat (due to solid casting used for the frame).
~ No staples - All glued and bolted.
~ Seat profile is very similar to stock.
~ Is very comfortable (needs some serious bum shining up).
~ Fits like a glove (all lined up first time with NO adjustments required).
~ Surprised at the size of the box as in it is quite large.
~ Still need to paint the wings.
~ Did I tell you it made by 12 French virgins.....

So all I need to do now is the test ride...... Fine weekend coming up.....  waytogo

OOohh and open to suggestions on what colour to paint the wings?Huh?

The winner of the colour I choose gets to sit on the seat and share that 12 virgins feeling.....

Saturday morning then, Tricolore might even venture over our way.
Sorry Big T, the wifey has art class Saturday morning so free time is abundant.

Pie shop then? or K.V.

It is a possibility for Saturday. I am however flat out at work and got a resignation from key employee today so that may cause some issues. I will know a little later in the week.
If I can't do Sat I will hook up with you on Sun Big T [moto]
