I decided to strip the windshield and back seat and backrest off. I knew when I bought this a month ago Id get around to doing this. I sure do like em stripped down like this.

Looking good!

If you want to add chrome, there's a chrome rack that goes over where hte passenger seat was. Also there's the chrome fender rails that go where the bag mounts went.

This guy has htem both:

And if you're interested, I have the eyelids off my roadstar I'd sell pretty cheap.

I really like the look with the solo seat too. I end up taking the rear seat on and off since I need the saddlebags when I ride to work. Maybe the rear luggage rack would support the bags? Nice looking bikes!!!

When I was riding solo, I had a backpack I'd keep my work laptop and stuff in when I'd ride to work. Now that I have bags and trunk there's plenty of storage, but one of these days I'm going to get another for solo riding and it'll be back to the backpack.

I take mine down now and then for that look. I love it.... both of those are beautiful bikes, guys.

I did the same thing. I think those bikes look awesome.

I just removed the sissy bar and rear seat on my 650. I really like the look even with the passenger seat bolt showing. There were 4 decals or tape on the rear fender to protect the paint where the pads on the passenger seat hit. I don't know if the PO added them or if they were stock, but either way I think I'm going to try heating and removing them!

I too removed the back seat about a month ago and really like the look of my 08 Liner. I added a leather fender bib to cover the rear seat holes and to dress it up a bit.

Did the same thing to my 1100. Replaced the rear seat with a rack mounted on a tuxedo.

 

[Miescha]

Yep, I love the sleek, solo look.

I love the way it looks but my wife would kill me...

I've got the window and bAgs off my 1100 but the seat is staying not happy but ok.

Do you have a link to the leather fender bib?

Yeah, it's an old post...IDGAF.

I'm thinking about stripping this thing down to a nekked bobber. I figure if I can drop all of the trim rails, luggage, etc...I'll shed a hundred pounds or better.

I'm kinda tired of all the extras...just want another legit iron horse.

I wish you lived closer, I 'd try and talk you out of those saddlebags. Perfect color for my Roadstar.
