If I was to put a two-up seat on my Nightster, that would be the one.

I like the look. I have just added a Mustang Fastback which looks very similar. I had looked at the stripper, but had heard that it was not very comfy. Mustang is great, I don't imagine taking it off.

Where's the "Maybe" option?? [8D] For a 2-up seat it's not bad, I just think it's sacrilege putting a 2-up seat on this bike! I got a passenger pillion thrown in with the deal when I bought my Nightster, had it on for about a day and then I just couldn't take looking at it anymore. As soon as LePera gets cracking on the Barebones for the '07s and my significant other's purse is left unsupervised for a moment I'll be all over that! lol I think they make a pillion with the Barebones seat too that may or may not be half bad, but I haven't really gotten that far in looking yet.

Got the oil temp gauge too, just no pics. License plate frame? got a pic?

I ordered V&H staggered short shots today also, I think i'm going to drill holes in the shields to match the fender mount and belt guard. Should look sweet!

I am also considering Le Pera as an option... Yeah I just don't know if any two-up will ever look good on this bike. The Stripper isn't bad as a concession.... but I still think it detracts from the looks somewhat(although not nearly as bas as some I've seen... eh hem... Sundowner
