Hope you SEEG(2)er's don't treat me like red haired step child
« on: October 23, 2009, 09:04:07 AM »

Basically had a dumb ass attack and traded for a citrus yesterday.  Small town southern Ohio dealer let me ride it about 30 miles before I bought it.  Made them an offer on the difference and they accepted it.  Won't get until sometime next week as I am stripping the SEEG2 down of the good parts (AK-20"s, etc, etc,etc) before tradeing in.  Got the AK-20's out last night.  Just turned 44K on the old girl.   Will post items for sale soon with pictures.

If you have AK-20's, good shocks, E-3's or Metzeler's, and a stabilizer on a SEEG(2), the 2010 will not blow you away.  Probably should not have done it, time will tell.

My SEEG2, I set in and felt part of the bike.  You sit on a citrus.  I won't ever like it (10) if I can't get that feeling back with the changes to be made (bars, seat, etc)..   Brakes are the only superior feature for now.

Always felt proud to be part of the SEEG bunch and will continue to fly that banner until the citrus is as good as the cherry.  Never got tired of looking at or riding it-just had new bike itis..

Congratulations Bob! :2vrolijk_21:

With the right combination you'll have that feeling back.  It was just a few daus ago that I told Terrie that this new bike is the most comfrotable that I've ever had.......you'll get there.  New bars and seat.

Thanks for the well wishes fellas.  It took a long time with everyone's help/suggestions here to get the cherry the great bike that it was.  It is slowly being altered back to it's original state before trade in.  Riding down a stock SEEG and riding home the 2010 Ultra should see a big improvement.

You are going to absolutely love this new bike. Jamey is looking at it hard too. The new ultra is going to be fantastic.  Whoever gets your SEEG is going to be happy, happy.

Contrats.

Nothin' to be ashamed of.  I actually keep hoping they're going to come out with something I "gotta" have, myself ... just hasn't happened for me yet.

Look forward to more of your comments comparing old and new once you get the new hot rod!  Congrats!
