    S40 THOR SEAT MODIFICATION

    I can't tell you because all my frame pre-date the wings. My honest opinion is just completely remove them. While they let you bolt down the seat completely; all the rest of us are riding old bikes without them and just the velcro does fine. All the RAAM bike had wings. I didn't install the...
