This is a Russell daylong I am talking about here
I think it is original to this seat
I definitely remove the original staples from it
Yours may not have needed the extra space
they are custom made

Got the seat Was able to ride it and found I need to add some padding in the butt area to lift the back of my thighs off of the front edge of the seat I assume if I would have bought it new they would have adjusted that I have some foam coming to fill it in after that I think it is going to work ver...

Hello Bogdan I live in the St Louis area I know of the Gateway BMW club. Of the people I have met that belong to it They seem to be good people They have the falling leaf rally every fall They moved it from Potosi Mo to down around Steelville but they still had it So i would think they are still act...

It is 2 of theses
They work very well but you need the proper crimper

I'm also considering stripping the auxiliary wiring harnesses from the bike and re-fitting it all 'properly', with an auxiliary fuse box and correctly wired in relays feeds etc. This would definitely require some serious garage time. The main reason for that is that I'd like to provide my partner w...

I am sorting out a Backrest for the Russel Daylong saddle I got off of eBay
I will post some pictures when I get a chance

The R1150R is very versatile indeed
It can go the way yous is or the completely opposite direction like mine

Very Nice indeed!!!!

I know pictures are a pain
But some close ups of the special features would interesting

I should know by the end of this weekend

I just got the seat pictured above
It's a Russel Day long for $155 US shipped off of eBay
It does have a rip in the side but they are $555 + $70 (S+H) = $625 US for a new one
I figure I can take it apart and tweak it if I need to

Any one have any experience with any of the custom wide saddles
Comfort wise
I already know they are butt ugly

The spare tank is worth $300 USD if that helps

After going round and round with different bulbs, reading disparaging reviews of Kisangani etc. this wonderful forum lead me to this mod for my OEM flasher. Simply fantastic Are you talking about the Kisan SM-5 I have one and it has been working fine Just wondering what you have read that is bad ab...

This really isn't that hard

"Another"
How many times have you broken your leg

I think the original posters are long gone
But anyway
The thread repair kits work very well if done correctly
The real trick is drilling the hole straight
Even though there is a pilot hole it can still be drilled crocked and if you do. It will cause alignment issues real quick.

All The manufactures of this type of TPMS recommend metal stems

Not sure how it could pull the valve stem core out
It does not attach to the core it only presses on it
Are you sure he didn't loose the whole stem
Was it rubber?

Thank you!

This is definitely on the to do list
