    New Farkle, Black Cherry Second Look Seat Skin

    Where can I get one of these bras? I have some small scratches that have shown up on my tank and would like to keep from getting anymore. Also where can I find some sliders?

    My plugs on the oil and the rear end were tight too. But I found my "Red-Neck" tourqe wrench to break it free. Red-Neck tourqe wrench = long pipe that slides over handle of ratchet.
