Good morning all

Brand new to the group. I live in Saskatchewan and ride a 2005 Shadow Aero 750. Bought it new all those years ago, but insurance rates went up so high that it's been in storage for a few seasons, and just rekindled my love of riding this summer. Found this group while researching a saddle upgrade.

Be sure to attach a picture as we enjoy seeing everyone's rides.

I insure my '97 Shadow as a pleasure vehicle with Hagerty. There's no mileage limit with them either. You could check them, Grundy or most any other insurer that specializes in pleasure and/or collector vehicles. They're less expensive then traditional insurance companies and YOU set the replacement value.

Best of luck as you get your 750 back on the road again!

In Saskatchewan we have government insurance only, and the current political leaders are squeezing us because they want to privatize. Cost me $250 to insure from Jul 10-Aug 31. Yikes.

Yeah I'm still shopping for one.. man it's an expensive change, but seems like it might be worthwhile.

Welcome from Southeastern Ontario.

I highly recommend a Mustang seat, or an Ultimate.

Hey Manitoba! Have to apologize everyone.. I made a name red and white thinking of our flag... and just noticed my mistake. Hopefully I can change it!

Welcome from the GTA! Some auto glass companies also have upholstering services. I'm told a high performance vinyl upgrade and upgraded foam with gel topper to be around a $150 CDN from my nearby Apple Auto Glass expert.
