Simpsonj06 YaBB Newbies Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 18	S40 seat on savage 08/19/15 at 19:46:56 Wasn't paying attention and I bought an S40 seat for my savage off eBay. Pretty sure I can make it work, but has anyone else done so? Any tips or suggestions?

I am thinking that you may have to drill a hole in the rear fender for the bolt that holds the rear of the S40 seat to the fender. Kenny G

Seat hooks in at the rear, then I slightly bend the seat in the middle to get the front tab in. The mounting screws are already a match so no worries there.

+1 The LS650 fender already has a sturdy anchor tacked to the fender, so using it to mount your S40 would only make sense. Plus you wouldn't need to drill your fender.
