LOL sounds about right! Not the best looking seat but it is comfortable, and I can't see it while I'm sitting on it!

Not too worried about the looks. Comfort is king at this point in my life!

Did you need to change rim or do any modifications to the fender to fit that 180/65 rear tire?

I cut the rear fender in 3 pieces and widened it 1,5'. This is how I cut it.

Cut up my vancs and Hines super radius pipes. Increased the size to 2" and 2.125 ".


Widened the fender 1.25". I also changed the rim f tom 3 to 4.5". The rim was on eBay. I also made spacers to move the fender struts out 3/4". I did it this way so I didn't have to buy another seat. It's only 1 year old.
