Title: All I want for Christmas..
Post by: Granite on November 17, 2019, 02:51:11 PM
I want this and all the parts necessary to be worthy of these parts.

Wouldn't be complete without the seat. Would need the seat if the other go parts are under the tree.

The seat has the Kookaloo launch shape but the full lower might trap too much heat.  I guess as long as you keep moving forward then all is good. Very clean looking lower by the way.

When you "Live your life 1/4 mile at a time"...that seat looks perfect.

That reminds me of the lower that is/was(?) on Travis' black FJ.  If he can ride that in Reno summers then heat shouldn't be an issue.

I usually run it in cool weather and take it off in summer.I don't think it overheats the motor just me.Its a great heater in winter.It shouldnt matter on the drag strip.It increases my top speed by thirty miles per hour.

well thanks! No I need that. it is shocking how it makes it look so much more modern (excluding that headlight).
