Yeah Hobbit, they do look like they belong there, don't they. RJ has them both with and without studs, but the studded ones match the seat so well. And they were easy to install after the seat is removed.

RJ was a pleasure to deal with, and he really seems to care about his customers being happy. I know that RJ ships to someplaces overseas, so he'll probably be able to take care of you. Sorry I didn't think to include a link in my post before.

Re: Engine Heat

factoring in the size of the engine, and EPA regulations, all the models from now on will be hot, but i've ridden an 07 softtail, and it's not so hot that you can't stand it. when ur not moving it gets kind of hot.

Re: Engine Heat

It doesn't look like RJS makes anything for Sportys... Maybe when I go to pick up my new bike this morning I should just trade it in. LOL

Re: Engine Heat

sharky, if you're asking about heat issues on the 1200 sportster engines, i wouldn't worry about it. mine is carbureted b/c it's an '06, but i doubt the EFI 1200 gets much hotter, and the only time it might get hot is when its in the 90's outside and ur sitting still.
