I always said the same thing to the guys with the classic cars. If you're going to take the time to restore them and make them look like they were a true classic, don't **** up the image by losing the white walls. It's the worse thing you could do to the look. To each their own, but I would rock the white walls and spend the extra 15 minutes cleaning them just for that clean look.

+! Suncruise on the seat question. Love the look of it. Is it comfortable? I see in one of your album pics another solo seat as well. Love the Solo look. I have my 2 Up setup pretty well under control now with the 2 up Sundowner. Now to get the solo'd out look squared away! More money more money!

Almost a year since this thread started. I made a few changes since then but the WWW's still make it pop. I wish the MOCO would make the engraved logo WWW like they had for pre '09. That would be elegant.

One solo seat is a Mustang Vintage Solo (15"wide w/ 11" passenger)
The other is a corbin seat 17" wide, that came as a kit from Bubba's brake.

The mustang (vinyl) fits snug with no wiggle room compared to stock 17" but it is more comfortable than the stocker. I'm good for 1 1/2 hrs then I gotta get off for few min. The sprung rail seat (corbin) has a steel pan and thin padding with leather and it's just as comfortable for just as long. Gets alot of looks too.

I'm curious about the corbin classic solo for even longer saddle time but like you say...more money...ugh.

Never liked ww but thats just me. Enough work to keep the bike clean without scrubing tires too.

Well, I think my '04 RKC will be getting a set of the Avon WWW's when the time comes to replace the Dunrocks (hate those tires!). Mine is ridden every day so that I have WWW, W grey walls, W dingy walls, and even W black-streaked dingy walls.....then maybe a cleaning. When they are clean they sure do pop....but I spend a great deal more time riding than cleaning...so she is a bit of a dirty big girl...which we all love, now don't we?

I think the WWW are the way to go with the RKC. I am hoping to change the rims to something tubeless, but the WWW will be there as well.
