Hello Dick, I agree with you Saddlemen does make a very good Seat Cover. I am restoring a 550 Nighthawk and wanted the same original look. I installed mine myself and it looks great. On Nov 19, 6:33 pm, "Dick MacInnes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Angela   > > The cover was $64.95 and install $20

Angela The cover was $64.95 and install $20.00. I have no idea about customs as I only wanted a stock look for my restoration. I sort of doubt they do customs but you can ask Chris. They were very nice to me although their main business is the big bike stuff. http://saddlemen.com/news/ Dick

Hey Dick, Just curious about the cost. How much was it to recover your seat? And did you just replace it to look like the original seat? and will they do custome jobs? Thanks, Angela From: Dick MacInnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: nighthawk_lovers@googlegroups.co

"Now the sidecar makes sense, if: You are a military officer or other person of military importance, and wish to travel in a more dignified manner, suitable to your rank,  than astride a seat snuggled up to your driver.   And especially if you have bulky (important) things to move." Agreed!

Quite the contrary, I'd guess the inventor loved his Dog! It would be a kick in the ass to have one for my Jack, a 9 y/o Black Lab. He's with me nearly 24/7. He has his spot on the back of the Polaris ATV when we hunt and he gets the entire back half of the cab in my Ford SuperCrew. The problems
