That looks nice on there!  Does it use the same base as the pillion seat for the C5?

Yeah, I took the P pad off the frame and bolted it on, the rack is for an electra. I drilled some new holes and lowered the rack an inch, it was a bit too high for my taste at first.

Washed and polished. Checked for loose fittings and sprayed the electrics with silicon spray.
Desperately want to go for a ride but I need to get my broad beans planted.  :-\

Today at the DMV the lady asked me if I had a mental condition or physical impairment, and I was grinning and said Nope, I have an Enfield!

I don't know if anyone warned you, but the grin is permanent!

Commute to work and rolled over 2,500 miles  ;D

I need to order some darn oil filters and buy some oil in bulk, nice to just have it all on hand.

Lock nuts loctite and lock wire used to be my mantra.
