Re: My New Seat
I dont mind telling you what I paid The guy who made it found the seat pan somewhere and offered it to anyone on a shovelhead forum i belong to for a new build It just so happens i needed one and he offered his leather work services He told me he would give me a smokin deal and I believe he did He charged me 150.00 for the entire thing I feel his art and workmanship is worth a whole lot more than that But I have no idea what he would normally charge someonepanz4ever wrote:Nice looking. Mind if I ask what it cost?

Re: My New Seat
I'd like to here some experiences with the Chopshox too. I looked at buying some but the seller told me they don't have dampener built in. If this is the case I can't see the benefit as they would just be a fancy looking spring that happens to look like a shock absorber?
