Thanks for the links, I have to fess up.  I have digested those pages many times in the past two weeks.       

I am starting to tick the must have boxes and getting this all sorted.  Doing my homework now.

Correct - 1999-2000 came with two up seats. And, Kaw sold aftermarket two ups.

See: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/historyp3.html

and: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/drifterseats.html

Cheers.

Thanks,  I see some early Drifters listed that come with the two up.  Good things to know when that time comes.

1) yes
2) yes
3) the horse shoe bracket under the seat MUST be used with the Corbin two up. You can use if for a while without the horseshoe bracket but I would carry passengers. The seat pan on the Corbin is strong but will stretch and mess up your rear fender. It is also unsafe to carry a passenger without the underlying frame.

All these parts are hard to find nowadays but that doesn't mean they are impossible to find. Let people know here what you need, keep an eye on the classifieds and on ebay.

When buying a Drifter, if the bike does not come up with the needed frame for a 2up seat:

1)  is it a hard item to find?

2) is the stock sissy bar hard to find?

3) does the stock 2up frame work with a Corbin double seat?

Thanks for any info.
