    One of those will be coming but not for a little while. It snowed here last night but is melting. I won't be able to ride it until late tonight but not sure f I will because the road may ice up. I like it though..

    Now if Cardboard would respond as I need some information from him..:rant::rant:

    Yep !
    Thought the bike looked better with the Back rest on. So I put it on and took the picture.
    It makes the rear end of the bike look more complete
    Couldn't make my mind up how I wanted my picture to look.
    With me on the bike. With me off the bike. With the dog next to the bike.
    At the boat ramp. IN front of the house. Had a hard time deceiding.

    I only see my wife 2 days a week.
    This is what I put on when I took it off.


    I like this look better. This was Quick release too. But I kept it on. Liked it more.

    The picture with me on the bike and the tourpac with the Supertrapp 2in1 supermegs.
    The OL and me had folks to run us down a few times to look at the way the bike was setup. And they liked the pipes.
    It was just the OL and my look

    I like the look without the backrest the best because it gives an unaltered look at the the fairing. (Rear view). It is allows your eyes to focus on other details like the skull latches rather than the back rest. But for your bike CB, the tour pak look is best..

    Want you to go and do something for me. DO YOU HAVE a HD catalog ?
    Go open it, look at the pages for Sporster, look at the pages for Dyna, Look at the pages for Softail, Look at the pages for Touring bikes.

    Don't tell anybody but I like Skulls. Got a skull on both arms.
    OL said she would never have anything to do with anybody with Tat's little on Skulls.
    She finds HD stuff she really likes, but if it has skulls she won't buy it for her.
    I got a Skull Sweatshirt with a Hood. I likes it.
    Used to have a Ball cap with a Skull, don't have a clue where it is even at.

    TAke a picture if the Bassani and a video and post it so we can see and hear.:rolleyes:;)

    Almost all of my clothing has skulls on them. Both pair of boots, my wallet, both jackets, about 6 shirts, I mean the list goes on.. I like them too. Hot Rider tried to tell me no more skulls on the Road Glide but I am not going to listen..

    BTW, that box is what my exhaust for my Sportster came in. I am going to reuse the box..
