Thanks for asking keith. I was afraid this seat would overwhelm the savage, but it really looks good in person. The new seat has 2 slots in the bottom so i got some 1 1/4" heavy gauge flat stock and worked it through these slots then bent it around ( very hard to bend) drilled holes where they needed to be, and used th fender mounting holes and bolts. On the front of the seat there is a hook so i put an eyebolt on that, drilled a hole just above the gas tank mount put the bolt through and put a nut on it, but it should have a nut on each side. I can't tell you just how good this seat is. I'm sure you know you can click on each picture and enlarge, but don't judge me to harshly i know i still have a lot of work to do. I think i may at sometime have a fringe put on the seat to cover the empty space below the seat. If there is real interest in this seat i can take it back apart and take better pics. This is not for everyone but i love this seat.
