It is but not on long trips. One guy had gel put in his. I'm thinking about doing the same

I had a seat with that biker gel in it and it wasn't that comfortable. And got hot as hell in the summers out here unless you keep it covered...YMMV

Not much so far, but I have owned the bike for less than two months. Next month a few different mods will be made, to include a custom sissy bar, new passenger seat, I will begin engraving my new cam cover and get a new primary cover to engrave as well, and will change up my turn signals, and start making my new foot pegs.

This is the garage door opener mod I added to the bike. I made the racket out of 16 ga sheet metal and wired my old door opener with an external momentary switch. I mounted the bracket off the side of the battery box.

I colored the switch with a sharpie...

The switch was one out of my junk drawer that came as a test switch on a bubble package of LED lights for a car. I plan on replacing it later with a better one. All leads are soldered and heat shrink wrapped. I also plan on putting the door opener in a plastic baggy or something to help keep water out "just in case".

Been thinking of hooking a garage opener switch up for the hole in the dash I don't need. Currently I just pressed in a smooth chrome plug that covers that hole nicely. And added two chrome dash bolts by the ignition. Got my new handlebars, shift linkage and hardware and seat bolt. Projects for my next days off...
