I couldn't do a long ride on a chopper like when I was kid. I've stuck an electra hibiscus seat on my custom bomber Did about 12 miles the other night on it and didn't walk like John Wayne afterwards either I'm not a fan of their bikes but their saddles are comfy   |

You got a good price for it in the end, the guy who threw it away must have had no idea about bikes... good on you for saving it and giving it a loving new home!
