Nice!  I just got my Thousand helmet too.  Love it.  That seat looks amazing!  Where did you get your bike stand from?  Is it front and rear wheel?

Got it from amazon.  You can use either front or back wheel but front is easier to use.

Half the fun is buying accessories! I also like that bike stand. Nice bike also.

A "few" accessories? Riiiight! You have the same handlebar extension setup as I for your headlight. I bought a camera mount that fits there as well, but I took it off until needed because it looked too cluttered.

How do you like that C9 seat?  Is it as comfy as all the reviews say?  Any soreness after riding?  I just ordered one myself and hoping it alleviates some of my soreness.

I have the C9 Cruiser Select Airflow, and like it a lot. It felt kinda mushy and weird at first, but I got used to it the first day, and I don't want to go back now.

I was looking at that one too and now wondering if I should've gotten that one instead.  Does the opening keep 'things' a bit cooler?

Just seeing this now, and yes, it does keep things cool indeed! A little TOO cool right now, and I put a foam plug in the opening for the sake of warmth.

How do you like the cell phone mount? Looking at it on Amazon it looks pretty nice. (assuming it's the Lamicall)
