    I remember seeing your sidewinder mod for outrunning the po-po lol


    It can slip some if the rear seat or rear cowl aren't attached. I've driven around locally with it off and if you take off quick it can slide back. But with the rear seat on or the cowl on, it doesn't budge at all.

    I give it the IAFM(International Association of Fat Men) approval stamp!:thumbsup:

    I would be afraid it would slip back and crack the rear seat cowl. Can anyone who uses the front portion only with the rear seat cowl in place comment on its stability?

    I've been riding with front only and rear cowl on for a little over a month now with no problems. And remember this is the professional po-po runner you're talking about here so you can be rest assured it does handle well at high speeds. :vtr2:

    Now go buy the damn thing already.

    If anyone would be willing to chip in to the Drewl Could Use a Sargent Seat Fund I'll consider the prospect.

    Stability is fine. I don't think you understand how the seat is actually held on with the seat cowl.

    In order for the front seat to move, it has to move upwards as it moves backwards. Since the seat cowl covers the back portion of the seat, it prevents the seat from moving upwards at all, hence no backwards movement. And all the pressure is dispersed equally on the cowl.
