I will keep you updated. They were quite cheap and they were the first company to offer anything for the 8. Perhaps there will be more options when they crap out. I am buying a Corbin rear unit to put on when my wife goes with me, but will keep it off when solo as I just don't care for Corbins looks. She will love it, it has a better angle so she won't be sliding into me all the time.

yeah not a fan of the rear Corbin seat either. THough if I was riding 2 up often I'd buy one for sure. Don't mind having it on my bike as long as theres a lovely woman hiding it hehe

Well I re-did them today. I pulled off the factory covers hoping to get a bit more strech room.
With one person working the fabric and pulling it tight and one person stapling, I did a much better job. I was able to get all the slop out of it and it is now drum tight. I will take some pics when I put them back on in the spring.
