    FLHTbiker, Great pics.

    I just put 4 deer out of the garden, ole lady and i planted some sugar snap peas a couple hours ago and the deer were in there picking some of the grass around the area. We have them in our backyard very frequently. I really enjoy watching them, but they can really eat up a garden in a hurry.

    Is that a sundowner seat on your bike, if so how do you like it?:D

    No Sundowner just a stock 09 seat. About the most comfortable stock seat I have ever sat on, even for long distance rides.

    Are any of your ridin buddies using a sundowner? If so, have they commented about ride comfort? I need a seat for the ultra i bought a few weeks ago. It currently has a badlander on it, but i want to get something that better suits two up riding.

    Gotta keep the better half smilin. :rolleyes:

    I am leaning toward a mustang but haven't purchased yet. I put 116 miles on the bike yesterday, first good ride i've taken because of the snow, and could tell that i will probably want something else on there myself.:D

    I don't know of anyone using one but me personally really recommend the Mustang seat. They are very comfortable.

    Well Sarge7 when you ain't got no BBQ here is what we did. The chicken fried steak would fill up any hungry guy and then we topped it off with Wild Mountain Blackberry topped with a layer of cake and and bunch of whip cream. Boy was it good.

    Darn - now ya went and made me hunrgy again and I just finished off some off my daugthers Lagsanna with fresh Strawberry cake for dessert.
    My back yard looks like a war zone right now; had a new storm 52'' storm drain installed and the heavy equipment has really made a mess- probably won't get a nice looking yard for at least another year. They are not even to the point where they can grade it down level yet! Been workin on it for a year now.
