Hey, Greenbarn...you should see if you can buy Chilidrifts now wrecked Vaquero...and build yourself another Drifter, with belt drive and a 1700!!!!

Ya, know, if you drop the fairing, and add some fender skirts,  you might have something there...

Don't forget that $229 backrest, wouldn't want her sliding off the back.

So, basically, a Corbin 2-up (if that's what a guy wants) installed on a bike, with passenger footpegs or boards, is worth:
479  seat
350  brackets, footpegs, adapters, etc.

So that's almost 850 if it's on a R model...  That's good to know.

I got the corbin on my 800 used for about 200, much cheaper.

At least $200 to Kawi for the seat stay,seat bracket,left side foot peg bracket, 2 footpeg holders and pins.
Then another $150 for Küryakyn pegs and mounting adapters.
Almost $100 to bring the seat across the border, 13% tax in Ontario. :'(
At least it was shipped free to Detroit.
Like I said earlier, a nice trip to Cuba.
But happy wife and daughter, happy life. :)

I would definitely look for the 2up combination, this is a pricey expenditure.
Mine was set up for solo only and by the time I bought a corbin seat, brackets from Kawi, the left side
footpeg bracket and Kuryakyn foot pegs (more money if you want floorboards) I spend enough for a nice
vacation to Cuba for a week.
No trouble getting the parts, just had to pay for them.
And when I was originally looking for a Drifter this didn't see to add or take away from the value of the bike.
It was more like a selling feature...

Aralph:  Corbin gets $479 + 229 for the backrest.   Approximately how much extra dough do you think you had in the brackets and additional stuff to make it work??  Just wondering - it's worth knowing to figure out how much Drifter "A" is worth vs. Drifter "B" when I'm shopping.
