    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I like it. How does it attach since you're in front of the lock bracket on the fender?
 
I turn around the lock bracket and use that as an anchor to bolt the seat.
 
I'm diggin' it. How or will you cover the frame that shows behind the seat?
 
I am going to take the tail off, move the tail light, licence place up there. Also buying after market signal light and move them forward :)
 
Nice seat, will look awesome after the rear mod.
I think wire wheels would also look good with this kind of mod.
What color scheme are you going for?
 
I have not thinking about color yet. Do you have any recommendation about color?

Cool! It really fits the style of the bike. Can it move forward somehow to close the 1" +/- gap between the front of the seat and the rear of the tank?
 
I second the wire wheels...and white walls!!! Such versatile bikes.
 
Can you give more details about the seast? That's the kind I want to get for my 850. I'm eventually planning on modding the rear of my bike by converting the rear fender from a frame mounted fender to one that attaches to the swingarm and "floats" with the wheel, about an inch off the tire. The seat would look great, andI would modify the frame by cutting it off after the shock mounts and finishing the cuts by locating the turn signal stalks there to hide them.

Paulyboy,

That's exactly what I would like to do with mine!! Have you found a fender that would work and do you have a mounting method worked out?
