Title: GTS seat, what did you do.
Post by DangMan on 03/17/06 at 01:52:51

I started on mounting my new seat today ! But I ran into some problems ! In the front where the seat is supposed to be mounted in the bracket there is no bracket on my seat ! So I looked at the original seat and found out that is was made in the plastid so I could not move it from the old to the new ! Was our seats like that to, and what did you do ?
Next problem is that the rectifier that sits under the passenger seat kind of get s in the way, so im planing on moving that, anybody having a alternative place for it ?

Congratulations! Form the side that looks a lot like the one Gitarzan had on his (a couple of images below). I hope it rides as great as it looks!

Here's a link to some instructions (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gitarzan/LassesFix/) he posted back then.

It was from the Replacement Seat to cure monkey butt (http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=RubberSideDown;action=display;num=1102428830;start=50) thread.

Go to your local Harley dealer and buy the front seat tab for a 2004 and up Sportster The tab will have two holes in it to attach to your seat. Here is a picture of one. It is the tab at the bottom of the picture, which is the front of the seat.
