Welcome! A Sargent seat will help that 929! If you're doing a lot of long distance riding, they do make Heli bars for it, too.

What's up fellow Blader! I'm pretty new here too but it seems to be a good experience so far. Everyone is pretty helpful here.....

Have fun on the 929, I love mine!

to the funny farm

Helibars and either buy some foam and vinyl and modify your own seat for a few bucks or you could always buy a sargeant for $200ish. A buddy of mine did the foam/vinyl setup and while maybe not quite a sargeant seat for the price its a pretty good improvement

Welcome to the .org


No Cong won't give you your own forum here like Keith. Interesting topics to say the least.

You will find the help found here on blades to be the finest anywhere.

And yes the Cajun revolution is here.

OK, that took me a minute or so to figure out.
"wrecked'em" and "rectum"
RP, you're a sick one my friend.

Unless that's really what his moniker means?

"ASSMAN" [Seinfeld reference]

Welcome wrecked'em! Great, now I can't even type it without smirking. Damn you RP!

My pleasure SuperDave

Reminds me of:
Little Johnnie is asked by his teacher what he did in the school holidays to amuse himself. "Welll ma'am, I went hunting frogs and when I'd find one I'd stick a fire cracker up its arse"
"Rectum Johnnie!"
"You bet ma'am, blew 'em to bits".

Sorry for being a wrecked'em

Re: new to site

i was gas hole but i got teased too much so i changed it

oh and i'm getting used to the seat.
its a wonder what a little tuning on the shock will do.
