If I do have the seat modified I will have the gel pad added under the cover and have the back of the seat built up so it moves me forward an inch or two.
As far as the cams go I have the SE 259Es sitting on the work bench along with the x-pipe, 4" rineharts and the TTS tuner. There are almost identical to the SE 251s that I have in the SERGU and it dyno'd at 107HP and 121TQ.

I just did 500 miles, seat was fine.  But I still plan on getting it reworked with memory foam.  Love the seat's looks and not planning on replacing it, only going to make it better.

Thanks for the link. Cool idea. I've had the gel insert before on my 09 SERG but this looks like it would be better.

Those are nice numbers out of the SE251.

I may take a look at the 259E.  I wonder how it compares to the Andrews 54G

I figure if I do not like the seat, I will try a corbin solo with rider back rest.

Interesting.

Looks like it would be pretty good.  Do you know if he will shave half an inch of the existing foam before he installs the propad so seat hight stays the same?

He does cut out the current foam so the seat heighth stays the same. $210 for the front seat on the '12 SERG. Sounds reasonable if in fact it does make the seat more comfortable. If not, I'd rather put that money towards a new seat altogether.
Opee

I bought my skunk about three weeks ago.  I am totally blown away with this CVO.  Be sure to get the header pipe removed so the true sound and power of the 110 takes front and center. Once my tour pack comes in I will post a few pics....

Yep, I agree with Joe.

If I was there I would buy it right now!  I'm waiting, impatiently on one.

Hi,

I went and looked at it, they have another one coming in November, meanwhile they have a blue one scheduled to arrive in November.  I know I want to go back to a RG versus the Batwing, but i got to fall in love with it and I couldn't make the decision without seeing the blue one.  I think if I got the skunk, I would put black crash bars, black exhaust.....a lot of black period.  I think the color matched tour pack looks awesome too.  I'm gonna be patient considering the time of year and that i am in Michigan, one of the worst economies in the country?
