If the shoe fits, well, ride it. Here's the X1W that I picked up from Hogluvr earlier this year. Wileyco titanium canister, race ECM and air filter, carbon fiber tank accents, neoprene fork gaiters, inverted clubmans filled with insulating foam, Tommaselli Gran Tourismo grips, Corbin seat, lots of stainless fasteners, some other crud. It's getting there. This is one wild bike!

I saw that bike when I picked up the S2. That was a very clean bike! |

He kept it in very nice shape. I didn't know you got your S2 from him. I'm into audio gear as well so I really wanted to take a peek inside of his dad's RCA tube box but I did have to ride home that same day so maybe next time. |

Steve, do you need balls that big to ride it, or is that seat for surgically enhanced 'down there' men? Once owned by a male pornstar perchance? Rocket in England |

It's probably because it induces a raging boner while riding it. |

Really like the colors, the blue header against white bodywork. Great looking bike. |

That's a good ergonomic improvement. Pressure on that part of your body, long term, can cause issues. You see similar cutouts on bicycle seats and add-on pads these days. I may have to give that a go. Was the seat cover material spray adhesived to the foam to get it to retain that shape? |

My own hirsute anatomy smashed it into shape going over some rail road tracks one fine evening... I'd imagine they glued the leather to the cut out when they made it. I really, really hate seats that either angle upwards or tilt downwards because you're always squishing yourself. I was anticipating more of a flat front section but the Corbin Ball Job is a scooped out section for the old Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncies to swipe a line from The Who. |

With the inevitable puddle, riding in the rain should be cool. |

My nuts are so power packed they're water cooled, ha, ha. I'll have to share that one with the wife. I'm sure that will brighten up her day... |
