Zach. Not if you keep in on the seat you won't. We used to stay at this RV resort when we had the Motorhome. Every Sunday these guys old and young would go on a 26 mile ride. Then come back and wipe there bikes all down and sit around and drink beer. Now that part I could handle

How many miles do you ride every day? Do you get on a stationary bike inside if the weather's bad?

Angie: thats about the going price for a custom hood on our cars. On my Chevelle. I got a new one cowl induction with a flapper on the hood. For around $ 400 from a friend. I still have it to put on the Chevelle. But remember you have to get it painted also. So thats another $ 4 to $500 for that also. So count on about $1200 at least

it is custom made and it is on the expensive side.
