Dave,

My first reaction was, Whoa, that's a pretty hefty chunk of change for that saddle.

My second thought was well. if it were me, and I'm going to own this bike for long time the seat's going to pay off in adventures and good times for me and the missus, then it might be a solid investment,

Haven't read Lance's book but he's a hero of mine. Landis and Pedro Delgado, back in the 90's, were caught doping and stripped of their title's immediately. They never caught Armstrong doping during the Tour. The evidence against him is purely circumstantial. Unfortunately, he's now being tried in the court of public opinion, a trial you can seldom win

Hey:

You can find them used on USA ebay for about 100-150 UK sterling, plus shipping if you have a little time to wait.
or get something like this and get it recovered...http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-CBR100...item27cb4890f1 and a back rest added by a shop in the UK plenty can do this for a fair price alot cheaper than 600+

Default I Splashed the Cash !

The corbin gunfighter/lady with backrest arrived, very nice job it is too. I am still getting used to the new riding position, bit lower than standard, but fine. It is almost a two position seat, sit forward for town work, then slide back to eat the miles on the open roads. The missus has not tried out her bit yet, the weather has been terrible, but not as back as the victims of Sandy of course, hope you got through it OK guys.

I also replaced the CCT, she was getting a bit rattly. The blades were all in almost in "as new " condition. She has 40k miles, and I did expect some wear. Thanks for the great thread on this one Guys
I am running Avon Storm Ultras , they give great feel in the wet. The battery is four years old, I will get her an Oddessey replacement for Christmas ! Best Regards from DD@D !
