AST MONTH, WE SHOWED
you how installing
H-D’s reach handlebar
helped Jenny Lefferts,
CEO of MAD Maps, reach
the handgrips on her Harley-
Davidson Street
750 a little better.
This month we

by swapping out the bike’s seat, footpegs, and
adding highway pegs for long-distance comfort.
Jenny lives close enough to Corbin Seats’
Hollister factory showroom, so she simply rode
the bike there and waited while the custom seat
of her choice was made. With a huge variety of
materials, colors, and patterns to choose from,
Jenny took the experts’ advice and had a beau-

white paint. Corbin has been making motorcy-
cle seats since 1968 and has earned the reputa-
tion for making some of the most comfortable
and best-quality saddles available. Jenny will
testify to this!By bringing the handlebar back
and the seat bringing her a bit more
forward, we accomplished exactly
what we were after—a perfectly
comfortable arm reach for Jenny.
We left the foot controls at the stock
position because the knee bend works
as-is, but upgraded the pegs using
Roland Sands Design Billet Trackers.
We added a Harley-Davidson en-
gine guard so we could add matching
highway pegs to it and give Jenny the
option to stretch her legs out during
long highway jaunts.
Once again, San Francisco Harley-
Davidson’s master tech, Todd Gregson
shows us how it’s done. Watch future
issues of American Iron Magazine to
see how we continue to improve the
Street 750.Part II: Corbin seat, H-D engine
