Anyone running the Paul Yaffe Stealth Fairing Bar, looks like a decent setup to clean the front end up a bit. Not too sure about the price tag though, but down the road a few months may be an option.

yes I am running it. It makes the fairing look like it’s floating. Very nice. Very subtle.

I'm looking forward to posting the mods to my 2024 Low Rider ST and plan to follow this thread.

I'd like to hear your opinions on the Mustang seat with backrest and the Saddlemen SDC with backrest.

The reviews are conflicting on comfort and rider position. It might just be seats being subjective by nature, but I like to hear from riders.

I have the Mustang seat with backrest. It is very comfortable but be aware it does push you forward a little bit. The back support is awesome for my wrecked spine.

I have the Saddlemen SDC with backrest. While the seat is comfy and raises you ~3/4" the backrest is useless. I just installed a cool velcro patch over the opening. The back rest is useless in the low setting, and when you raise it, it is to far forward and to small to do anything. The Mustang one appears to be more setup correctly.

The SDC is a great seat without the backrest.

Yep very nice seat without the backrest for sure. I was going to sell and get the standard one, but just put a patch over the opening and it's good to go.

I thought about that too but just not worth it. I even tried the backrest again not so long ago and it still does not fit my back, the good news is the seat is comfortable without it.
