Designer's springs are a wonderful thing.
Seriously...
What brand of seat on the S83 ? Was it an easy change?

Still have way too many bikes but my 011 650 Vstrom bought new in 012 in middle of pic way way up north is loaded with far more than the big ol Harley was [emoji2] . When you get old you need more stuff when you travel.A thicker bed roll and even a pad under it!Bigger tent for the more stuff. [emoji2] More layers of stuff to try to keep warm in the Alaska cold. It was 28 and snow when we rolled in to Dead Horse the first week of June!
