Nice pics, thanks! I got lazy (okay, overwhelmed) with the drop seat and had FBI install it in Daytona. I used to live in Michigan before I retired to FL. Great looking bike, man!

Why re-invent the wheel? And I don't work for them, it is just the answer to your question.
Thanks I did find them and that is exactly what I was looking for. It was just an idea that I am entertaining. I am looking for a comfy drop seat that moves me back and down.

Probably easier and less trouble to get a trike instead!
