I hope the seat slides down 'cause ... really ... everyone made these into low riders. Ass right over the rear tire - pull back on the handlebars as you hit the pedals, your back settled into the sissy bar and the front wheel was up off the pavement in an instant. Usually could ride half a block without the front wheel touching the ground.
Skid stops worked much better with the center of gravity low, too.
Bringing back lots of memories, BR.
