Nice looking bike but the exhaust treatment is very crude.
The exhaust on these bikes is the biggest challenge.

It's like a version of that seat that will fit on my Anniversary model....does anyone know if there is such a thing??

That seat requires a mounting plate will not work with the OEM rear fender and aluminum strut plate.

Yeah....I suspected....do you know of any custom seat maker that can make a seat like that that replaces my seat?
I had a guy for my Harley that could make anything...but can't find his contact.

Thanks...

Most any custom trim shop can build a motorcycle seat. But it won’t look like those Spirit Leather bobber seats.
There is a guy that goes by Alligator Bob that is pretty talented.

I understand....Not a top priority right this minute, but eventually I'll have another seat made for my bike....
The Anniversary bike should have had leather as the red insert.....

I'm more of a stripped down guy....but VERY nicely done!!

I agree Randy ... I am not much of a 'Bigwheel' fan ... but this does look nice.

 

[Scott Semone]

Very cool looking R18:

Interesting....I probably would have just bought an R9T than this conversion....but to each his own.
