Mod to solo seat with luggage rack?  Anyone done?
07/15/09 at 05:08:46
 
I'm unlikely to carry a passenger.  Generally I don't like passengers - too unpredictable!  If I decide to keep this bike, I'd like to put on a comfortable (higher and more ergo) solo saddle and a rear luggage rack.  I notice there's stuff under the back part of the stock seat.  Maybe a recifier with fins, and some wires.  Suspect this can be appropriately covered.  There's the side rails carrying the mini-sissy bar (a horrible looking thing).  I suppose those can be replaced.

Anyone done this conversion?  Comments, suggestions?

That looks more like it!  Hard to get a fender?  And the seat, what's that?  Looks much much better!
