ok man....tell the story

 

[74novaguy]

Well there isnt much of a story. I live in northern california. Danny Gray is in southern california down in LA. Traffic got really crappy last time and in the mist of trying to figure out what exit to take when the freeway is going 10 different ways a truck decided to stop in front of me and I used his tailgate to stop me. It did 3300 dollars of damage to my bike and 1500 to his truck... Good new was my back was out till I hit the tailgate and it popped it back in. Felt great the rest of the weekend. Well I still wanted to get the bike to danny gray for you guys so you would have more seat options. (I already had it to corbin) Since the weather here was been so great. its usually 40 degrees and snowing where I am at but last weekend was 70 degrees and sunny. So I hoped on my bike for its first ride since getting it back and took it on a 300 mile ride down south.

hey Yosemite did they end up totaling your bike or what?

 

[74novaguy]

Nope, total bill was 3880 in damage to the bike 1500 in towing and another 1500 to the guys truck. I wound up only spending 2200 to fix the bike (parts at cost) and made some upgrades, I got rid of the scallops on the gas tank and L&M front fender. So I got to pocket a goo 1k which went to buying a new gun.

****, that's a lot. I spent 800 out of pocket and got a custom paint job, mirrors, wind shield, foot pegs, grips, and licenses plate holder.

Yosemite, Have the folks at Danny Gray given you any word on which of their line they
will make for the Stryker?

 

[74novaguy]

No word yet. Im assuming they will make a solo seat and they did ask for the factory back rest so Im assuming a two up seat also. Hopefully they will keep me updated with pictures and Ill update as I did with corbin.

 

[dliszews]

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they do the Speed Cradle solo, or Buttcrack solo.
Based on their site the Buttcrack is popular, so I won't be surprised if they take that
safe route. Keep us informed. Thanks.

I contacted sales at Danny Gray about which models they were producing and here is the reply:

We are definitely in full swing of seat molds for the Yamaha Stryker

Seats that will be offered are the weekday 2upXL, buttcrack solo and probably the shorthop 2upXL

You already know more than me and they have my bike... ;D

 

[christopher]

I like the buttcrack solo seat.

 

[middleagecrisis]

Anyway we can find out if they will do a discount for members of this board?

 

[74novaguy]

I'll check with them and see if we can set a up group buy for seats. I'll have to wait till they have finished products. But Ill start a thread for group buy interest.

 

[74novaguy]

Just an update. Looks like dannygray doesnt like the factory backrest pad so there looking at making a replacement backrest pad for the factory backrest support.
