I had that seat in my Slim S but with a pogo setup. Most comfortable seat I’ve ever had on a bike in 45 years.

 

I beg to differ.

 

My Deluxe with a spring seat

 

I like them skirtless Uncle G!

 

And I like mine “Deluxe.”

 

Touche!

 

Hey SLV, long time no hear from...

So did you sell your slim & buy a new heritage ?

thanks,

Hello Wknds. I just saw your bike in a google search the other day. It reminded me of all the help you provided when I was doing my seat install.

Yes, I put 30k miles on the thing. When I changed jobs and moved to New Mexico, I had to go to only one bike. I made the wrong choice and regret it, but the new Heritage is pretty sweet. It does feel weird riding a bike that looks like everyone else’s. I’ll fix that slowly. For now I’m making it practical. Stage 2 cam just today, spring seat tomorrow until I can figure out a pogo rig. Once I make it practical for travel, I’ll pick away at the aesthetics. My goal will be FLH police style. High riding 50’s style.

 

Wow, did alot of trips on the Slim it appears... Hehh ehh! Well that 50's style is a long way (style-wise) from the Cafe Racer Sportster you had...

I've still got my old '13 Slim, but I picked up a Ducati XDiavel-S along the way though.

The Alim was a great traveler once I got the luggage situation sorted. People were always surprised that I put long days on the pogo seat, but that thing was comfortable.

I went through a phase with my second bike ideas. A couple BMW adventure bikes, a Yamaha MT-10, and finally a Triumph Bonneville. All good bikes in their own way. I kept the Triumph when I sold the Slim and, as much as I liked it, it was not a good bike for traveling.

I have a sickness.
