Where did you find the rear bumpers?
I am looking for some for my bike and I haven't run across anywhere that has them.
Any info would be great.
Great looking bikes to btw, very nice.

I too love the solo seat look, so we are shopping for a bike for my wife, she would rather ride her own than sit on the back anyway.

That's why I have the Corbin and no bags... she won't ride the Drifter anymore... spoiled with the gwing... so the double seat allows me to actually carry stuff without adding bags that obscure the fender.

Put the passenger seat back on the 1500 today.   Kinda hated to do so, because I love that back fender, but I hate not having the lady with me even more...

I'm in the same boat........love the solo look, but love the wife more..........tough one!

Guess thats what they call "Taking one for the team"!

Thanks!

I learned the Voyager Kickstand trick here, in fact.

I've been working on customizing a Drifter 800 and a Drifter 1500 for about a year now, and now that I've got them pretty much the way I want I thought it might be helpful for others if I put a link to that page here:

http://www.jonathanveley.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=79&Itemid=85

The page covers solving a variety of problems (including fixing many of my own mistakes).  I started with the 1500 in July and the 800 in October.
