By looking at all the pictures of the stock seats, it seems to look the best for a nice clean sporty look on the glide, you know, pull of the couch the backrest, passenger that is and install the other seat.
If someone has done this, please let me know and show some pictures please.[sm=Flahssssss.gif]

Just buy a SG Seat if your looking for sporty. There have been a few on ebay and here. I can say the pillion seat isn't comfortable without a backrest though.

the RK seat may leave a void between the tank and seat that an EG seat covers.

you can order a small filler piece that is in the accesory book to fill the void

I just bought one on ebay for 71 bucks.I put it on but don't have the filler piece yet and can't show you any pictures as the bike is stored for the winter. I will say it looks real sleak and I hope it will break in to something I can sit on for medium length rides. I'm pretty sure I'll eventually spring for a sundowner, but this was just to cheap to pass up.
I've seen several on ebay. you should be able to buy one for under $100 if you aren't in a big hurry.

Thanks guys, I'm pretty sure it will work if I put that little piece on to take up the room between the tank.

ApeKing, how much?
Just drop me a e-mail sometimes.
