The seat is a French brand, BLG Sellerie, blg-sellerie moto was on the bike when I bought it but its mighty nice and comfy compared to the stock seat!

In the San Francisco Bay Area we have a great and very active motorcycle website Bay Area Riders Forum BARF for short. Its not specific to any brand of bike and you get all kinds of folks posting and meeting up for rides or social gatherings and its a kick to chat with a fellow rider and...

So sorry to hear about your friends tragedy, I doubt there is anything you can do or say to them to help, but probably just being a good friend and available to listen is what they need. I cannot imagine the guilt the mom is feeling.

Dont know if this is a repost but even if it is, its good for another giggle :) Wish I could understand what the fellas in the car were saying, probably where can I get one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cCvhXXlG-I
