thats a good guess, but the truth is that i had the cheap JC Whitneys double bucket seat, and it worked just fine, what really made the difference is a good industrial back brace... the first 5 hour sortie to Columbus cost me about an hour flat on a hard floor to stop the spasms... anyone over 6' tall needs a back brace to ride that long... jason #110
= = = Original message = = = Jason, ~Welcome back to the fold for I do remember you and your adventure. My guess is that 7 weeks on the road really made an impact on you and you never want to do it again. My advice is to get a better seat! And get a 750! ~Bruce [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > hello to the SOHC/4 group... its Jason Lisica #110, M.I.A. since > 1996... im rejoining the list, cause im re-rebuilding my 1971 > CB500K and i cant wait to get started again... > > the last time i was on my SOHC/4 was riding back from a 7,000 > mile, 7 week trip across the U.S. to San Francisco from Prospect, > PA, where my bike is now, yes, we made it back too... 2-up, all > the way there, and all the way back... i guess its been sitting > there with all the bumper stickers on it since then... about > 8 years.. whew... > > to be honest, i want to sell the bike after i get it running > again, but i have a feeling once i get on it again, im not going > to want to get off... > > the last thing i remember from the trip was getting home after > 7 weeks to my dad who was waiting in the driveway with my old > dog... the blue smoke pouring out of the tailpipes was hurrendous, > my dog, a hound, the smoke was so thick that it was causing my > dog to have some sort of sneezing fit, and she was blowing dirt > from the driveway all over the place...
