Cool Beans!   You're a great fella, D1!   I don't care what Ratman says about you!!!   :o

That is a good thought for my future (much) 800 project, though.   I need to get the Corbin solo that I bought on there fist, though, to see how I like that!

GB already covered my man . A quote from Singh himself  ;D ;)
- I can sure offer VDR members a 10 % discount on all my items. Needless to say, ebay takes 12 % of the sales price's share, so anyone buying direct will also get a 12% discount on top of the 10 %.
I also offer a 5 % veterans discount.

Wow were did that come from, I never even thought that you would be skimming off the top somehow, I know you would be doing it out of the goodness of your heart, to help your fellow Drifter Riders.
My feeling is kind of hurt over this, but I will get over it some time soon.

I didn't think so either!!   As a matter of fact, I just assumed you were picking up 10-25% of the cost, just to show us what a GREAT GUY you really are, helping out your fellow Drifters, and the Good Mr. Singh as well!!!   ;D ;D

Wow... Singh's work is fantastic.  Been chatting with him on FB for a bit, dude has skills.  Hoping I can score one of his seats this year for sure!

For all those looking for a solo sprung seat , Singh just messaged me and is back doing his leather work after 8 weeks of therapy and rest . He suggested I handle his dealings here in the states so if you need something please pm me .

There is Singh Saddlerie on facebook. He is selling a bolt on kit at reasonnable price.

I thought he just did the seat.  I didn't realize that he had the mounts too.  That's cool!

I put one one mine but I had to do away with the springs and fabricate my own mouting brackets. Bit I love the way it looks and it lowered the seat height about 6 inches, which is perfect for me because im 6'4" and I have long arms.

JMBO , the Singh saddle for the 800 also requires two holes to be drilled . Simple job though for anyone thinking of going sprung seat route .

I have a Singh seat on my 1500. Only needed to drill two holes to mount it.  I understand the 800 is a direct bolt on.  Love the seat. I was worried that a seat without padding would literally be a pain in the butt. Not so. The springs absorb the bumps just as well as my stock double seat did.

Lots of people have gotten a springer seat on their Drifters, both 800 and 1500.  A Harley K model seat and brackets can be finessed to work (takes some light fabrication), though all the springer seats I've seen need a cover fashioned to cover the battery.  As far as I know, there are no bolt on deals that are ready to go.  Everything is custom.
