Stock Seat Questions

[RuneRider66]

So, I bought my 2013 F6B with 120 miles on it from the original owner. He rode it the 120 miles then had a health crisis. He never made any modifications to the bike. I have never had the seat off until today. Under the seat where the 4 bolts are....there are black rubber pieces that the long silver metal tubes go in...then the bolts go in through the seat and into the metal tubes before catching the threads and snugging tight. Right? Well when I took the seat off....there was only a black rubber piece in one of the holes in the seat....the other 3 only had a circle area in the molded bottom of the seat for the silver metal tubes to sit in. I was wondering if this was normal or do all of you have the black rubber pieces where the 4 silver metal pieces go (holding them in the center of the hole and matching up to the threaded anchor?

LOL, wow I hope you can understand that description. Just wondering what your feedback was. I know I know, buy a new seat from Ultimate huh?

Thanks in Advance

Here is pic of everything and as you can see there should be four rubbers(9) and four steel insert sleeves two short rear(28) and two long front(29).

If I were to buy a new Ultimate seat I would not need those rubber sleeves CORRECT??

I can't answer that since the only Ultimate seats I have are for my Runes and VTX1800 and they are different. I ride a custom RDL on my F6B and it uses the OEM seat pan so it does use the rubbers and sleeves.

I'm sure someone with more knowledge will post the answer.
