Can someone photoshop a pic of the xb12stt without the side panels (numberplates)or with the two up seating without the side number plates. Also, is there anyway to lengthen the suspension on my XB9SX? Would I need new forks and swing arm or just different springs? tanks for everything, you are the best.

I looked in to putting TT suspension on my CityX and it is a big PITA, the swing arms and forks will swap over, no problem, but the shock mount and shock is the issue. The Long swingarm shock mount is in a different location and angle than the CityX shock, also the TT shock can't fit on tot he short frame without modification because the resi hose is on the other side and will hit the short frame. It can be done if someone can figure out the whole rear shock situation (valving, length, etc.).

It would look alot like this ;) as for the two up seat, I will try and find a pic of it when I wasnt running bags. To heck with photoshop, this is the real deal. (but it is a cityx)

tanks cityxslicker,
I've seen you bike a few times. What I am getting at is, I wanted to see the distance between the rear tire and the seat without the plastic. What type of rack is that, Ventura? I have seen pics of the side cases but what do you hold on top? tanks

The top rack is a modified and cut Ventura. I carry a H&B Sport-trunk back there. I will load a pic when I get them from my camera. The side plates are from H&B. Welded a solid sheet over them, and mounted Pelican cases. here is a better pic of the rear before the sides were filled.
