The extensions are easy to install here's troys thread with a pic of the kit.

I got the seat and pan from eBay they where both made by la rosa. It's pretty comfortable a far as being rigid goes.

What do you mean by the bag?

After taxes and everything else it just aint worth sending back

I also got some Forward Control extensions sent over from Steel smith Troy (Troy Posinski) They are 3" extensions. Hopefully ill have chance to get them fitted tomorrow they are really well made my hat is off to troy.

I also fitted some 36" drag bars yesterday because the apes wobbled at speed, wobble is gone, so is most of my fender and struts.....

Ill update tomorrow with the forward extensions on, Cheers for looking.

Looks Awesome! Are your bars internally wired? I have some 28" bars, but am finding them quite narrow. Your fender looks great, did you do the chop yourself?
