I live in central IL, but travel a lot. Pretty much all Harley's or crotch-rockets around here . To me, Harley's are more of a fad than fabricated vintage bikes.

The CB500T, from what I've read (didn't do my research when buying really, and just grabbed at the deal), is one of the most uncomfortable bikes during that time anyway, so comfort isn't a priority. I'm only going to do short back road rides anyways...no trips.

As for the brat style... I just love the look... dirt bike bars, low profile seat, and bare bones. It might be a very basic motorcycle or build, but there are still so many different ways to make it your own. That's what I like. Although, I agree, lot's of unfinished ugly cafes out there geeez.

I do love KC! Had a friend live there for years, and spent many fun weekends there.

I have heard of using a skateboard, but ended up buying a seat off eBay. It may due, but doesn't fit great. It's too round on the sides. Having trouble deciding how to mount it.
