Nice, I thought the carbs were replaced at you sons. Well anyway you can do it. I did it on my 02 but driving my 96 to Carls to help him do it. He’s so good at it he whips them out. Will get them done before noon.

I like the custom seat and trunk pad. Very cool. I am thinking about getting my saddle done to raise it up 3 inches or so.

Corbin seat, I had them custom make it for me in 2005. So its 17 yrs old, I have a bad back. So the back rest gives great lumbar support.

My son said he'd just didn't have the time for the carbs. So he shipped it.

LOL, that's a serious backrest. That thing could give Superman back support!

Nice machine. Congratulations on it.
