Anyone know the secret to mounting this seat. So far it's been a bastard. 3 hours and the only way I can get the bolts to line up is not use the factory bushings or grommets. My girl friend isn't fat enough to compress the thing enough to line up even one bolt. If I gotta go through this shit every time the seat comes off I'm going to light it on fire.

Ok, I'm just an impatient grumpy old bastard. Walked away for an hour and a half, went back to it and it went on slicker than snot. It does take a little finesse but once you hold your mouth right it goes on lovely. Can't wait to ride this sucker tomorrow.:):):)

That's exactly what one must do at times... when you're at a impasse with something, just walk away for a bit and then take it back on. :icon_wink:

Got one on my "B" and I love it! Got my covered in the velour and that takes some getting use to but no more hot seat after setting in the sun but if you like to slide around don't get the velour!
