RE: [ST] Dashboard screw



A corbin seat with a backrest for your girl (or wife) is a great comfort
'idea'. My wife loves the back-rest which means we can go on much longer
journeys...The seat itself is a little wider than the stock seat which makes
her much more convertible (and me too!).

Just the basics:

1.  Tall windshield
2.  Gen-mar bar risers
3.  Kury-Akyn throttle rocker
4.  Triumph carbon fiber tank pad so I can lean on the tank more when my
back or wrists start to hurt
5.  Slightly softer suspension adjustments
6.  Heated clothing for more cold weather riding

and I'm looking for more!  Anybody else have some "comfort" ideas?
